This new song is not a good sign IMO. Nevermore was SX cliché at it's best, and this is just more of the same. I love the band to death but they have been stuck in the same song writing mode since Paradise Lost. With both tracks now I could cite multiple sections of their own material that...

Wow, listening to this record sequentially I'd say at least 7 tracks sound exactly like each other. Dynamically, tonally, structurally, vocally...everything If you take out Iconoclast and When all is Lost (which coincidentally appear to be the favorites) you have an extremely one dimensional...

I don't even know where to begin!

Who did you order through?

Romeo sounds like he recycling quite a few of his past riffs. And it starts right away, the verse to Iconoclast could very well be the verse for Eve of Seduction almost note for note. I picked up on about 10 other examples where I had deja vu from just one listen. The whole record seems a...

Agreed but there's a total of 18 minutes of music on iTunes so it's a fair sampling on what we can expect even though there will be much more to discover. To me I know there will be a bunch of cool stuff to look forward to with this record but it does seem to be quite one dimensional -...

My thoughts exactly.

In that case you must not have heard The Spirit Carries On, Goodnight Kiss, Octavarium, A Nightmare To Remember or countless others. Oh and it's TheatER. The Special Edition artwork for Iconoclast is way better. Question for everyone, what are the chances of mainstream stores like Best Buy...

It amazes me how people are unable to draw the distinction between updates and actual promotion. Imagine if a company launched a new product that they really believed in...and then didn't tell anyone about it!? For me it falls on Nuclear Blast 100%. Personally...were I in SX's shoes...I would...

Wow, look at that...I totally agree with Kenneth!!! :kickass: And to think that I got shot down months ago for pointing out how badly SX (the band or otherwise) promote themselves.

I'd be intrigued to hear a breakdown on how the other guys in DT managed to negatively affect you - considering they're all relatively quiet family men who involve themselves in musical projects with integrity. And in Mike's defense the 3 kicks are just 2 sets of two where the middle one is...

Of course Kenny said it will suck...he has an image to maintain!

I was just sharing information here that I saw posted at mp.com. I clearly stated that I don't trust Wikipedia AND the main Symphony X page provided two sources. :popcorn: I agree with you removing it based on the fallible sources. Oh well it was exciting for a second!

Not that I trust Wikipedia but: Infinite Knowledge Infinite Knowledge is the eighth studio album by progressive metal band Symphony X, that will be released in 2011. The album is a concept album about Odin. Track listing "Valhalla's Prelude" – 1:46 "Sanngetall:Visions of Future"...

Many good points. For me DT just has more musical dimensions to them than SX. As was mentioned previously, SX have their sound and they don't deviate too far from it..which isn't a bad thing by any means. But with Six Degrees and everything prior, DT manages to cover a large scope sonically...
