Fuck yes! I'm in the 5% on something. Finally. It's Payne's Gray! I knew you could bring them back. You are the man. I am so there. Now don't argue with me about Infinity. It was just a demo and doesn't count. You tell the guys that I can supply the cats.Harvester said:A band that currently has no record label (and only released one disc on a very small label previously) has sent me their new album. It has kicked my ass like nothing else has in a while. I have listened to this disc non-stop for three days now.
Band #1 for ProgPower USA VIII has been confirmed as of today. I'm sure that 95% of the people on this forum are going to say "who?"

P.S. The last time something similar to this happened, things turned out ok I believe... *cough*CircusMaximus*cough.

Too true, though I really hope they make it to Atlanta next year. And Dark Empire. I've become addicted to their cd. I have no guesses at this point who he's talking about.booB said:There are hundreds of bands out there that fit the clues as well as Syspyre, that people here are less likely to have heard of. I've never listened to Suspyre, but I've seen them mentioned here countless times. Add to that the fact that they've been on the last two ProgPower samplers... why would Glenn suggest that only 5% of people here have heard of them if they've repeatedly been on his samplers?
Actually, Joe's suggestion of Payne's Gray makes more sense.![]()
General Zod said:"Buzz"? I disagree. Just because they're mentioned now and again doesn't equate to "buzz". There's been one thread on them this year (where they're the subject of the thread). Most people don't pay to attention to every thread.
In addition, you need to consider the clues:
A band that currently has no record label (and only released one disc on a very small label previously) has sent me their new album.
Suspyre has one release, on a small label, with a second in the can waiting for release. They're also touring with Zero Hour, so it's more than likely that Glenn is familiar with them. In addition, they fit ProgPower flawlessly. A perfect balance of Prog and Power. Lastly, they're from NJ. Which mean Glenn doesn't even have to pay for plane tickets, much less international plane tickets.
Does that mean it's definitely them? No. Is it most likely? That's where I'd put my money.
