That is pretty cool. This kinda threw me off a bit, as there is another prog metal band called Persona NON Grata out there.
However, both of those bands have entirely different sounds. As Glenn already stated, this Persona Grata band is much like Haken or Leprous, with that very technical sound. Persona NON Grata is more straight up melodic progressive metal, ala Dream Theater and the like. Still worth checking out as well, though. Their Quantum Leap album is quite good in my opinion (also on eMusic).

This is really good! I'm not a big fan of buying mp3 only releases, but I might have to make an exception here!

Look who just got added to PN14! Now I know who they are thanks to this thread. 
The biggest Prog event of the Millennium just got BIGGER!
For our Sixthman Soundcheck band submission contest I listened to each and every one of the 180 entries and it was incredibly difficult it was to narrow it down to just 3 winners because there was so much great talent to choose from. Congratulations to BAD SALAD, FELIX MARTIN and EUMERIA for ultimately being selected as the three new bands to perform on this historic event.
But many more of the bands that entered the contest stayed in the back of my mind…
So I asked Sixthman if there was any way we could possibly make room for more bands...and while the Soundcheck Stage is full, we decided to add a 5th stage on board in the Bar City Lounge for up to 20 up & coming bands to perform on. This will be called the "NEW MILLENNIUM" stage.

Finally nice to see this announced. There were actually two former ProgPower names (that would've blown PN attendees away) that were invited to the Millenium stage, but couldn't commit at that point because of scheduling conflicts. Maybe next year.
