well it's happening. Just as long as Neal keeps the lyrics secular

TRANSATLANTIC FLIES AGAIN!!!

PROGRESSIVE ROCK SUPERGROUP
REUNITES FOR NEW STUDIO ALBUM.
POSSIBLE LATE 2009 RELEASE PLANNED.



TRANSATLANTIC, the progressive rock "supergroup" comprised of Mike Portnoy (Dream Theater), Pete Trewavas (Marillion), Roine Stolt (The Flower Kings) and Neal Morse (ex-Spock's Beard), have reunited after a 7 year hiatus to begin work on a brand new studio album.

The band began work on the album in early April in Nashville and are expected to have it released by year's end if all goes as planned.

TRANSATLANTIC have previously released two studio albums to tremendous critical and fan acclaim: 2000's SMPTe and 2001's Bridge Across Forever. The band toured on the heels of each release with an American Tour in 2000 and a European Tour in 2001 and released subsequent Live DVD's/CD's from both tours before going their separate ways for an indefinite hiatus which lasted almost the entire decade.

Thread semi-hijack: did you go see Marillion in Montreal??

[AngraRULES]

Boring.

 

[mëtålspëd]

Boring.

What if they added Bill Hudson?

 

[AngraRULES]

What if they added Bill Hudson?

Imagine if Transatlantic played ProgPower. Now think of last year's Saturday night.

That might answer your question.

 

[Soundscape]

some of you guys do realize Jim Matheos was almost the guitarist for this project right?..and Daniel Gildenlow of course was the unofficial *5th* member on tour in Europe for those rare dates in '01.

You bet I did.... A utterly fantastic three nights it was indeed.
I won't rub it in as I assume you missed it?

Let's hope for a Transatlantic show somewhere in the south east in the near future, and for a break in Bloodbound schedule at that time...

 

[grilled_cheese]

Ummm....Whats an LP?

Indeed I did. *sigh* And lost $150 to do so. (Had to sell my tickets at a loss.) I've been to all the other conventions, so this was the first one I missed.

Not sure I could drag Urban to a Transatlantic show... and not entirely sure I want to. The first one was okay, but a bit proggy for my taste *yep, I know--go ahead and make fun of me). I love Pete dearly, but this just ain't quite my cup o' joe (unless they've mellowed out the proggier elements some...?).

It is a mystical device that probably had a part in your conception, judging from the question (inferring your age).

ZIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!

I'm old enough to be your daddy. I'd wink but hell if I can find the winker smiley.

 

[grilled_cheese]

ZIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!

Who knows. I could be your daddy as well. From what I have been told, that mystical device was quite popular back in the day. Again, cannot find the winker smiley.

 

[AngraRULES]

Again, cannot find the winker smiley.

Typical of a real old guy...

 

[grilled_cheese]

*winks*

 

[rockyracoon]

Neal Morse = Rainbows. He has always ruined this potential-laden project for me. Of all the vocalists that could fill the role...

 

[axehomeyg]

All of the Above, and Duel with the Devil are just so immense and rich. I'm defecating fetal feral felines in anticipation of the 3rd album.

 

[Wyvern]

Yeah I read about it in MySpace, can't wait for it! :Smokin:
