    Thoughts on Winds

    These are just a few random thoughts, based on Imaginary direction of time. First off i have to say i love this cd, however there seems to be something missing, it feels like the band is holding back, trying to sound professional without getting the "feel". Again nothing too bad. So...

    More songs like this please

    Guys if you want any tips for the new album, a few songs like Pulled under, Are you there, and fliying would suffice, especially pulled under. Although i'm a huge fan of the melencholic soulful songs which is what hooked me onto the band in the first place, the anger you can hear on Pulled...

    Anathema label question

    Is it true that Anathema are still an unsigned band. Hard to believe that such a band can have no label when some of the shit thats being released earns a paycheck. Surly SPV or Insideout would make a good home. You guys cant fold.. Oh yeah, whats Vincent up to latly, all i seem...

    Thank you Dan

    First off I'd like to say this is not one of those stupid fanboy posts. I have had a bastard of a week, one I wouldn't wish on anyone. Monday I had to do 2hrs of unpaid overtime because my boss got his ass kicked by his boss, so took it out on us. I then got in a yelling match...

    A return to fanatasy

    Swano and Tchort

    Been listening to Green Carnation latley, and I was wondering what would happen if these 2 geniuses got together. There sound is very similar (Blessing in disguise sounds 70's prog rockish) and the potential is there for a masterpiece, hell Tchort wrote and hour long song, and Swano likes...
