The Road of Bones

Very few cds have staying power. I normally listen to a band for a few weeks (like Need) or months (generally older bands like Maiden/Priest/Krokus/etc...) and then realize, at some point I pretty much stopped listening to them. This hasn't been the case with IQ. I may go a few months between listens, but I'm always going back to it.
It's probably my favorite release of 2014.


This is the title track. It's about a serial killer, from the killer's perspective. Folks, it doesn't get more metal than this. (well, subject-wise) /m\ /m\



I still don't understand why it's called Neo-Prog? It's good sheeeeet. Tags don't mean much to me.... It's all about great songs.

IQ are great. If I had known about the two shows they played last month in Canada I would have made arrangements to go. Kicking myself.

They played ROSFest a few years ago, I think...

 

[The Colorado Kid]

I probably missed them too. Hopefully they'll play some shows (or hit the road again). I bet they'd be great live.

I picked up Road of Bones some time ago, but only gave it a spin or two....have to try again.

Would love to see them at PP......hell....would love to see them anywhere.
