Yeah, Ostby doing nothing musically is one of the greatest ongoing musical tragedies :( Come on man, Khan is not doing anytning either, how about it? :)
 
Hi all and thanx a lot for your kind words! My friend, Frode, noted me of this discussion, and I would like to let you know that I am still playing and writing, though I have been taking a longer break. I am actually about to set up a new band together with Leo, the drummer of Pain of Salvation. Now we are looking for the right singer and a pumping bass player, and then we will be ready to make the next steps. We will probably be more official about this in a little while. But since you guys are still hanging around, I thought you guys deserve to know already. Thanx a lot for your patience and support!!! Tore

Ken Golden and I had a discussion about you at ProgPower this year and were commenting on how the Conception albums need a good reissuing! :)

Great news!
 
I just spoke to Leo from PoS briefly about this project. He said it's still in the writing stages but described it as "picking up where ARK left off" with a lot of Spanish influences, definitely exciting news in my book.
