BALANCE OF POWER

[edgeofthorns]

Okay, I've been a fan of this band for years now and they were one of the first bands that got me into this genre of music. When it comes to melodic metal, I can't think of a better band. In my opinion, regardless of who they have on vox, these guys churn out great music. With that said, I'm chompin' at the bit to hear what they sound like with Corey Brown! To my understanding they've done a few festival dates with Corey and are working on a new studio disc as of now.

Who besides me is a fan of this band and would like to see them back at the fest?

 

[General Zod]

They would be a great addition.

Balance of Power would be great! I was hoping they would appear for the last 2 PP's but I guess they were in the midst of some changes.

I'd absolutely love them to play. They don't release bad albums. I'm not sure they write bad songs either...

 

[mloanna]

Having never seen them live but have a couple of cds..I would love to see them.

If you haven't already, pick up the Heathenology CD/DVD set. It has a nice disc of remasters plus a live CD and DVD. The DVD has live footage of Lance and John K (as well as a few snippits of yours truly ) over the last several years.

Awesome band and Corey is a great vocalist. Would love to see them back at PP.

Having B0P there with Corey is probably the closest you'll come to a Magnitude 9 appearance With that being said, l like Corey's vocal style. He should fit well with BoP.

Hell yeah...cant wait to hear Cory on vocals! He was great in Psychodrama

I actually got that set last Christmas and I agree that it's a great package! I wish that there was more live footage of Lance though and more remastered songs from When The World Falls Down. I haven't been able to get my hands on BOP's debut yet...........for a decent price anyways.

I like them quite a bit. I'd definately look forward to seeing them live if they were booked for next year.

I didn't know about PP USA when they played several years ago. So if Glenn does a repeat on them, I'm all for it.

 

[Andy Laudano]

Perfect Balance is one of my all time favorite CDs. I love Corey Brown's vocals in Mag 9 so put me down as another fan that would love to see this band.

I agree! Now just when will the BOP be released? Things sounded like they were moving along in February of this year, but then no news from them (their official website) since then:

Definitely a great live band!!
We saw them at Firefest II and to me, they were one of the best bands of the day. Looking forward to see them play again at the Metal Forever Festival on Dec. 30th, and I bet they'll be even better by now!

If you like Psyco Drama, you need to pick up Identity Crisis by Section XVI which Corey is also on. You can definitely hear the PD in it. Great stuff.

Wasn't Corey Brown the vocalist for Redemption at ProgPower IV ? If so he was great!

 

[Burnout]

I haven't really heard much of Balance of Power, but I am somewhat curious. Being a fan of Biomechanical I'm tempted to pick up Heathen Machine to hear more of John K. on vocals, but I haven't seen many reviews of the disc. Does anyone know if it's worth picking up?
