That's so cool. Cheers, Frank. Come back to our forum for a visit from time to time; it's just a big dysfunctional family hashing out its problems (and arguing over the best Symphony X album) over here.
 
Hey guys! We just got added onto the Soulfly and Soilwork tour! Details are on Soilwork's website.
 
Got my download code this morning, steeping myself in this bad boy this morning. I gotta say...this is an incredible piece of music. Not sure where these fellas pulled it from, but if they can keep it up I'll be handing them money forever.

And as a sidenote, it's like they looked at my tastes and picked vocalists that would make me fanboy all over their album. Cause damn. But the instrumental tracks are every bit as strong as those with voices.
 
This song completely blew me away, it came out if left field so I was not sure what to expect. I might almost kept scrolling but seeing Lajon from Sevendust was featured peaked my curiousity since I had not thought of him doing something different than Sevendust (which I briefly listened to as a teen).

I am very glad I checked it out because this band is top notch across the board. I have been listening to the avaliable tracks constantly for the last few weeks. This may end up being one of my favourite albums of the year, and certainly the biggest surprise for me.
 
I've been spinning this all morning. :OMG:

I did not stream it in advance as I wanted the best quality digital. Well worth the wait. This album just absolutely floors you.
 
Spinning it all night..

What a total unique sound,if anything they took the TesseracT sound a bit(Tompkins being on one track is a perfect fit),and took it in a unique direction adding everything else

every song is amazing
 
So, I saw them play live last night. They are very, very good. Tons of energy and spot-on.

Since they are touring with Soilwork, I was hoping that they would play the song that features Bjorn and he would join them on stage and do the vox. Well, they did play the song, but they used the vocal track from the album.

This is the only problem I see with the band. The fact is that they are an instrumental band. The other fact is that the songs they have written with vocals are so bloody awesome that you really want to hear live vocals with it.

Anyway, definitely catch these guys on the rest of the tour if you can. They are definitely the odd man out in this lineup, but the reaction to their stuff was incredible. Extremely well-received, even by the non-fanboys. I should say that if there is a "wait list" for bands to fill in any unexpected vacancies on the PPUSA roster, these guys should be at the top of the list.
 
Hey guys, just wanted to pop in and say thanks for the amazing response and support. It really means a lot! The Soilwork tour was an awesome experience, and hopefully there will be more live dates on the horizon.
