I'm surprised by how pwned PL is in this thread. To me, it's more brutal, in a good way, but also has its share of so-sos (Serpent's kiss, The sacrifice). 'Odyssey' is more consistent in that regard. Really a tough choice.

I had not visited the Symphony X website in quite a while, so imagine my delight upon finding out not only were they planning the next album, but that writing has been done and recording started back in March! Best musical news of the year. Now awaiting.. the album art!

I don't. But I was just listening to 'Dance macabre' and he actually sounds pretty good. I could appreciate his stuff. So I was wondering if there was anybody who actually likes Rod more than Russell.

Hugh Syme reused the artwork for Rush's 'Vapor trails.' Hugh Syme rules. Btw Lepond's LOLZ is funniest for me.

FYI. The background in the Neil Peart picture originally came out in Megadeth's 'Cryptic writings.'

nice stuff. i'm sure man-whoring would be a better fund-raiser.

It was pretty sad. Blonde people who can't really play.
