    THRESHOLD = REVELATION = REVOLUTION

    I also think that lyrics are a very important element in music, and are to a strong degree what IMO make Threshold different and special. Almost all their songs are about environmental, social critical or spiritual issues of mankind without ever sounding patronizing or clichéd or even tacky...

    Essence of Progression Tour 2009 - Post Your Pictures, Videos, Reviews Here

    Thanks Richard, for elucidating me. However, I find this hard to believe since it's one of Threshold's strongest tracks ever, but I guess you know best what works best. I was kind of looking forward to hearing it, but the otherwise superb choice of songs played more than made up for it. :) It...

    Essence of Progression Tour 2009 - Post Your Pictures, Videos, Reviews Here

    Been to see Threshold lately as well, and it was just great! I liked especially the fact that the setlist was so different to previous gigs. But where was The Whispering? Wasn’t that one of the announced epics? The video screen looks well cool and adds another dimension – but at a...

    Paradox Box Set Reviews

    Just what I thought as well. There is no law that says a band cannot have two vocalists, so it would be well original and unusual, but more than that those two voices would compliment each other more then perfectly. Back on topic, another strong favourite has got to be the compound version...

    Paradox Box Set Reviews

    Absolutely! I have already said that Paradox is a treasure box. I'm still digesting it and to give a complete review is impossible. I'll do it in chunks then. The track I find myself listening to most is Half Way Home with Glynn Morgan on vocals. It says so on the booklet, that his vocals...

    BEYOND - THE OFFICIAL THRESHOLD FAN CLUB

    Yes, I agree with LavagesOfTime: definitely more of these! I also like the idea of an extensive photo-gallery - but don't think they should all be "good quality" in terms of geeky photographer's opinion, but simply interesting (and maybe funny) to look at. As the site says, something you...

    Essence of Progression Tour 2009 - Post Your Pictures, Videos, Reviews Here

    Since Damian rejoined the band, I kept hoping for The Whispering to make it back on the setlist – and there we are! Wow. It’s one of Threshold’s most powerful, and wonderful epics, so hearing it live again (1997 was the last time, indeed) will be just plain fantastic...

    Favourite bands?

    Why christian rock band? Why not just white metal band or something? Why make that difference? Do you have to be a christian to appreciate their music?
