Many of you may be familiar with a progressive metal band called Mayadome. I for one was a huge Mayadome fan and was very disappointed when i found out they broke up. Their album Near Life Experience is an amazing piece of work that any prog metal fan should own.
Anyway, the leader of the band, Teddy Moller, who by the way has attended and played the last few Prog Powers, particularly with Wuthering Heights, has a fairly new extreme prog metal band called Loch Vostok. While the music is much heavier than Mayadome, you can still hear the Mayadome influences in the music. Teddy has taken over the vocal duties, and has an awesome voice. He uses some death metal growls, but overall, the music is very progressive and well thought out.
With Teddy's connection with the festival, and what I believe to be, a new album on the way, Loch Vostok may be in the works for a PP appearance. If anyone wants to check them out, here is the link: http://www.lochvostok.com/
By the way, Teddy is one of the nicest persons I have met at the festival. He went as far as sending me some rare Mayadome material after I told him how big a fan I was. I hope I get to see him play with his new band!
