Amaran's Plight- New Supergroup

[APlight]

Anybody know about these guys?

DC Cooper
Gary Wehrkamp
Nick D'Virgilio
Kurt Barabas

Their debut album is called Voice in the Light. It's in the vein of S. Gallery and Spocks Beard, with DC's soaring vocals. I was involved in the project and can tell you that its an amazing piece. They're on Progrock records. To be released at the end of this month.

I Love DC's voice... the song samples didn't seem to knock me out though... the lineup is impressive so I might just gamble and pick this up.

A pretty good way to look at it would simply be Shadow Gallery meets DC Cooper, with a slight hint of Floyd and Zeppelin thrown in. We took pride in making it orginal, emotional and very musicianship oriented. If you're into Prog-metal with cool rippin' instrumentals, you'll like Shattered Dreams, Betrayed by Love, Viper and Revelation.

Come again?

Amaran's Plight >>>>>>>>>> New Ozzy

HaHaHa!

Haven't you said this on basically every thread that addresses a new album? (Could be someone else) It's a running gag, but I still find it hilarious ... similar to the way I find it hilarious that Ozzy is still actually attempting to put out albums. Note the word choice.

Come again?

> means greater than
>>>>>>>>>>>> means much greater than

... You know - like those greater than/less than symbols you learned in third grade math and never used again in life.

Oh..OK....

hey, I gotta plug my project...I spent 5 years and pile of money on it....plus it really is pretty good stuff.

At least you compared us with Ozzy....

At least you compared us with Ozzy....

That might be damning with faint praise, though, if the new Ozzy is as lousy as he thinks.

THANK you so much for your recognition of that! You rock!

Ha ha ha!!! No no no...no slight on the Plight. I just thought it'd be funny to write that on every forum with something new yesterday. I really don't like what I've heard from the new Ozzy. Check out the clips on Amazon.com...I've heard several full tracks. Oh good lord. Not even Zakk can save him now.

On the topic, however, I LOVE pretty much anything DC Cooper touches!

In that case, you'll love this. Its a nice mix of Progressive....S. Gallery style, classic rock and Power-Prog metal like S. Force. We really worked DC hard on this record to try and bring out his best. We shall see though.

Well that's cool. The sound clips sound decent enough. I'm looking forward to it.
