Given how well "The Towers of Avarice" was received by critics and ProgMetal fans, do you guys feel any additional pressure with the impending release of the next disc, than you had with previous discs? Granted, the ProgMetal community isn't this overwhelming, mass of millions and millions, but we are a fickle bunch. Just look at the disdain with which the last few CDs from ProgMetal gods Queensryche and Dream Theater has met with.

I for one, listen to roughly 500 CDs a year, of which I buy about 100. After the brilliance displayed on "The Towers of Avarice", if the next Zero Hour CD isn't among my top three of 2004, it will be a bit of a disappointment.

Thoughts?
