    New Damnation Angels

    I’ll have a rough time getting past my bias for Pellek... I have no idea why he left the band, but I’ll miss him.

    NIGHTWISH - WHERE TO START??????

    I loved everything Nightwish until the last two albums. I love Floor, but she is so underutilized! Century Child is my all time favorite NW album. It’s what got me into them. End of All Hope is one of my all time favorite songs as well.

    NIGHTWISH - WHERE TO START??????

    I absolutely couldn’t agree with you more about Floor! She’s a beast and has fallen victim to crappy writing. The last two NW albums are sub-par, yes. ‍♂️

    MAGNUS KARLSSON'S FREE FALL: We Are The Night

    I loved Kingdom of Rock, but this one has fallen flat for me.

    UNLEASH THE ARCHERS: Abyss

    I’m late to the party, as usual, getting into this band. I recently checked out Apex for the first time and was blown away...excellent stuff!

    ProgPower USA XXI postponed

    Glenn, I hated to hear this today, but it’s totally understandable. My money and badge stays where they are.

    THE DOOMSDAY KINGDOM, ft CANDLEMASS' Leif Edling

    That has to be the singer from the band, Wolf. If not, then he sounds just like him.

    ProgPower USA XVIII Days 1 & 2: First Band Announced!

    I heard about three notes of the opening piano riff to Bleed during the announcement and was stunned they were even approached by you! Can't wait to see those guys! ~Brian~

    FREEDOM CALL: Master Of Light

    Who in the holy hell thought that artwork was a good idea? I'm a huge fanboy of this band, but for cryin' out loud! LOL ~Brian~

    Are we all going to pretend this never happened?

    I openly admit that I'm a Jorn fanboy...my favorite material from him is the Masterplan debut and Out To Every Nation...no, Burn the Sun isn't my favorite. I do like that as well though.

    Diviner - Fallen Empires

    This album simply kills! I've enjoyed the heck out of Fallen Empires, since hearing about it on this thread. Excellent metal!

    NIGHTWISH: Endless Forms Most Beautiful

    I've tried and tried and tried, but I just can't get into this latest effort from Nightwish. I don't quite know what it is, but it just falls flat for me. I've loved everything this band has put out, including Anette's era, up to this point. Oh well, here's to their next album.
