For Immediate Release
April 16th 2009
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.

Perhaps you should both join Blur ;)
I think we'd benefit more from joining Focus.

Sharp. Very sharp ;)
A somewhat peculiar question here:
For some reason I wanted to check out Neal Morse's website and the one of the Flower Kings, but every time I get on one of those websites, my internet browser crashes...
Is that a TransAtlantic virus?

Hmm, when i hit Neals' site then suddenly i get a warning from my Virus-scanner but i've got no problems entering the Flower's site.
So i think that it's partly your internet browser who's responsible for this.

Thanks!
Yeah, The Flowerkings Website is doing fine now. But Neal Morse's is still a problem indeed.
Could it be that they're hosted by the same server?
