    Conceptualizing the New Album

    When are we gonna have a release date announced? D: I have high hopes for this album, as I always have with this band. It's 2010, you guys gotta set the mark for the decade to come. I believe you could do it, too. With the exposure you guys have been getting in the last couple of years, a...

    Production on the Suspyre disc

    I really liked the production on The Silvery Image. The drums sounded like they were recorded in a huuuuge open hall or something. Had a really great sound. Nothing really stood out on the other two albums though, production-wise. I'm a huge fan of Steven Wilson and Devin Townsend's production...

    In Pastille Colors

    I want nothing more than for this album to get released. :( Suspended Animation Dreams was, in my opinion, the second best album to come out in the whole 00's decade

    Clay As Guest Vocalist on New Shadow Gallery CD

    I'm listening to the album right now, on the second track "Venom". Clay, you did an AMAZING job on this, holy crap. Major props. But the lyrics were atrocious in the beginning, haha. Oh my god, it was Count of Tuscany all over again. But your performance was absolute top notch, I am in awe.

    Lyrical Instrument

    Really, with Suspyre, for me, I do consider Clay's vocals to be more of an extension of the music. I don't pay attention to the lyrics as much. I do read them and figure out what the songs are about, but the type of melodies he sings just come across to me more as an extension of the...

    Only 2 days until ProgPower USA Showcase!

    I would love to see some video. Not gonna lie though, ProgPower has been slacking on their lineups the last couple of years. I'd say Suspyre is better than every single band on the main stage.

    I'm in a bad mood

    Doing this while listening to Suspyre's music is awesome. Minus the orange, of course. Although it gives me a few ideas...

    Rock Band Network

    I was reading about this in a game magazine earlier today, and what it's essentially doing is selling bands the software to make their own rock band tracks. I personally saw that and instantly thought of Suspyre. It would be an incredible way for you guys to further expand your fanbase...

    2009 PPUSA Line-Up Photo

    Noice, full band! Took a few years but i'm glad to see Suspyre coming out into their own. From seeing Rich and Gregg at Gigantour way back in 05 with only two songs on their myspace to ProgPower USA 2009, goddamn guys it's awesome to see you make it this far. I mean I know you're not on...

    So 90% of the new DT album leaked

    Actually yes, I did download a Suspyre album. But I also own all 3. I do purchase albums i'm interested in, but considering i barely have money to get by doing anything, if i don't download music I won't ever hear anything new. In fact, if it wasn't for piracy I wouldn't have ever even heard of...

    So 90% of the new DT album leaked

    Sorry, can't help you there. Even if no one bought this album everyone in DT probably has enough money to be set for life. I'm genuinely poor, I have no sympathy for rich people bawwing about not getting more money If it was a lesser known band then sure, but a band like DT will get oodles of...

    Basically everything but track 5, "The Best of Times" leaked. the shattered fortress, the continuation to portnoy's "AA" series...holy crap, such an incredible song. I thought A Rite of Passage/A Nightmare To Remember both SUCKED, but this song is phenomenal. The Count of Tuscany is...

    Prog Nation

    I know that Gregg is a fan of Pain of Salvation, who are on the bill this year(Enough to make me spend upwards of $500, no joke, thank god metal shows are cheap) and there's a date in NJ Aug 7th in Asbury Park, the Convention Center. I am ****ing stoked. The full lineup is Dream Theater...

    You guys should check this band out

    http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewProfile&friendID=164208530 I just heard the only song on their page, and WOW. awesome prog. I figured, Suspyre fans would have good enough taste to realize how awesome this is.
