Kiaus: A must for PPX!

[DEATHZILLA]

This band is "oozing" with talent, they have put out 3 kick ass discs and would be liked by both Prog and Power heads in my opinion. They can bring alot to the table for the fest. What better place to hit the stage in the states then at the "mighty" ProgPower!

 

[Palabra de Dios]

Great band. I'd vote them in for sure.

+1.

 

[Ascension]

Maybe by their 5th release when at least half the band members have changed & any hype generated has died.

I hear zero folk in any of thier songs. I cant figure out why these guys get lumped into the folk catagory. I have two of thier CD's and they are kind of just average.

So what does that make it? 20 musts for PPX? Shit Glenn, ya going to make it 4 days?

 

[Magius]

The new CD is... disappointing. The first two were excellent.

Reformation kicked my ass. The new one hasn't caught my ear. Suffice it to say, I've cooled on them.

This new album is destroying me!! I listen to constantly so many fucking catchy hooks with great instrumentation.

 

[Diamond45]

+1 - haven't listened to their latest album, but Reformation is a solid ass kicker.

EDIT: Just checked some samples from the new album. Kicks ass as well. Might have to pick these up from Laser's Edge, or I might just wait and see if I can get them at PP.

I've been diggin' on The Spirit of Ukko all day today. Great band...and yes, I think they would be a great fit for a ProgPower lineup.

I have "The New Dark Age" whatever that one is and its pretty awesome.

The new album Lustdriven will be out at the end of March. The new single Afternath is on their MySpace. If the rest of the album is like Aftermath, it will kick solid ass!

[modernwizardry]

YES YES YES

The New Dark Age is my favorite but it's also the first one I heard and have listened to it the most. The cover of "Hunting Girl" on Reformation is epic though.

 

[nomisofsiman]

Are you guys talking about the band Kiuas? Just making sure because I can't find a band named Kiaus.

Glad to see this resurrected on the forum. Since their first disc i felt strong that they fit the ProgPower criteria. I want to see them at ProgPower because it is the "true" best metal event in America period. I mean no disrespect but when they played the states last year along side bands like Dope ect I was shocked with disappointment. There was noway in that crowd they could have received the respect and enthusiasm that they would have at progpower. I believe in first impressions and that was undeserved. I still have hope that they will show up at ProgPower
