Source: http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/symphony-x-to-begin-work-on-follow-up-to-underworld/ Mike LePond announced all of this in an interview! I don't know about you guys, but I am stocked! Especially, for Mike's solo albums because if it's anything like the instrumentals he did on...

I'll get into this deeper later... However, now having this album for a whole year, I bloody love this album! I think Symphony X did a phenomenal job from top to bottom and I would love to see this whole album in a live setting. Fun Fact: I am friends with Pinella and we chatted briefly. He...

Ayreon - "Dawn of a Million Souls" If you have not heard his solo and Russell's glorious vocals on this song. I would strongly suggest you go listen to the glory at hand. It maybe my favorite Michael Romeo solo of all time.

Agreed. I would love to hear the following songs, plus I feel like all these songs will do well live: Nevermore Without You Kiss Of Fire Charon SwanSong Legend Plus I think we all can agree Symphony X deserves two-three hours worth of playing time due to all those glorious songs.

Yes it will. Concerning NB: Seriously, I was thinking the same thing? There is no music videos or anything? When "Paradise Lost" came out I remember those music videos being a big deal. Because it was one of the few reasons I even heard of Symphony X. They just kept popping up on YouTube all...

Hmmm... "Legend" has some amazing solos with Romeo & Pinella trading. "Nevermore" has a solid solo too. Hard for me to choose right now. However, I am going with "Legend" because him and Pinella slay everyone in that song.

I disagree. I honestly, think the reason this band does not contain the same writing as it used to be is because: 1. They have grown older and wanted to do something new. 2. The other band members do not contribute as much as they used until now in "Underworld." Underworld: Romeo &...

Overall: I think this a bloody good album. It enhances classic, modern and I believe also provides new things from Symphony X. To me "Kiss of Fire" is something completely new. I will go further in detail later. I just want to highlight that Jason Rullo (Drummer) kicked incredible air on...

It is possible? Romeo says some of the songs reminsce other albums. For Example: Beginning of the "Nevermore" solo has the same the ending line in "Serpent's Kiss" solo. Just as in "Legend" one of the "runs" is the exact same as in "Iconoclast." So there are hints all over the record. I...

You have probably been a Symphony X fan longer than I have? Haha.

They don't have as many progressive moments as they used to have. However, the guys still have progressive moments. There are some throughout Iconoclast that are quite obvious to me. The new song has progressive moments as well. Here's how I look at their last few albums for what they are...

I think it's great. I believe Russell did the vocals they way he did is for the sake of the song itself. Love the fact some Neo-Classical style of playing was thrown back in the mix. So how many of you the lyric, "Sea of Lies" in the beginning? Romeo says the album goes back and reminisces...

Very pleased to see him entering. I hope he wins! Everybody needs to vote!

I am really surprised that Symphony X did not announce this (Russell did on his page). But many I am sure do not know that Sir Russell Allen is singing with the East Coast Trans-Siberian Orchestra tour! He was phenomenal live and a pleasure to always speak with as well! Check out some the...

If it helps at all... You can try figuring out the melodies and solos in D-Minor.

+1 in writing together. Yeah... Stop playing so many new songs off the album. When All Is Lost was awesome live, Iconoclast was gnarly and End of Innocence was pretty rad. But Heretic, Dehumanized, Electric, and Bastards. All those songs off the new album do not need to be played. Two or...

:rock:

That solo is pretty nuts too! So is Heretic.

Mhmm. Absolutely!
