CONSCIENCE- Incredible New Prog From France!!!!

[nightwish58]

I just found a band who will definitely stir up alot of talk amongst the Prog community! Check these guys out; passion filled vocals, melodic, great use of piano/keys and just very refreshing.

I spoke with one of tha band memebrs and they actually opened for Nightwish in France and got a huge positive reaction. Their disc Half-Sick of Shadows even comes with a bonus DVD (I believe). Check out the sound and video clips; you will not be dissapointed. The crowd appears to be going nuts for these guys!

Very impressive to these ears to say the least. What do you guys think? I now have 2 favorite bands from France... Superior and Conscience!

 

[monstershredder0003]

yeah they're pretty cool, but on the subject of favorite bands from france, how come you did'nt include Adagio?:Smug:

 

[booB]

maybe because this post isn't about "bands from France", it's about "Conscience"? And Adagio isn't that great.

 

[King_of_Loss]

I thought Superior was from Germany.

 

[YtseJammer]

I thought Superior was from Germany.

They are.

 

[monstershredder0003]

Wait until you hear these guys, album comes out in April.

You will be blown away.

 

[Cheiron]

Yeah I ordered it. We'll see. I think it may end up sounding a little bit like Cynic & Spiral Architect.

I thought Superior was from Germany.

My mistake; don't know what I was thinking, but regardless, Conscience is fuckin amazing! I should have a hold of the full album soon and will post my thoughts at that time. For now, check out the samples on theri site, including the video samples which are incredible.

Easy mistake to make.... Superior were always biggest in France. (And dangit, I miss 'em!)

 

[nightwish58]

Well, i have received the album from the band which is encased in a beautiful digipack with a bonus DVD that is amazing! This band has similar qualities to their fellow countrymates Vanden Plas.

You guys really need to give this band a listen as they are quite impressive and have released an incredible debut album!

 

[AngraRULES]

And Adagio isn't that great.

They're greater than your favorite band.

And don't even try saying your favorite band is Angra.

 

[Progmetalmaniac]

Pat is that you?

Its Jay.

Did Frank pick up the cd's yet?

They're greater than your favorite band.

Bah! They put on a lackluster set at PP. I'm with Boob on this one.....

I love Adagio, I love the new cd. That said, I kinda agree with the above. Was good, but I'm sure they can do better.

Thanks for the tip on Conscience. Placing an order now.

As for bands from France, I gotta add Penumbra.

Given the situation (Gus being in the band for only 10 days by then), they did an awesome job.

And I liked the set, although I would have changed maybe 2 songs on it.

 

[Ascension]

Easy mistake to make.... Superior were always biggest in France. (And dangit, I miss 'em!)

Yeah...same way with Vanden Plas...and I miss Superior too and Vanden Plas grrrr

Spheric Universe Experience. Check out their Mental Torments CD. Another amazing French prog band. Probably the best French prog band out there imo (next to Adagio )
