NP Damian Wilson - I Thought The World Was Listening 1997-2011

Another satellite of the Threshold constellation. It's a fine 2CD compilation of Damian Wilson solo albums. Don't expect neither prog nor metal. Instead you'll get heartfelt ballads, most often with only an acoustic guitar and a violin or piano. Definitively worth listening if you come with an open mind. Here's a review : http://www.dprp.net/reviews/201159.php#wilson

How would you describe Kayak, Teunis ? I haven't heard anything from them so far.

PP Dream Theater - Dream Theater
I had not played it for a while so I was happy to notice that it is still a very pleasant listen. I just don't get the last epic but there is enough good music before.

They're from The Netherlands and I'd call it symphonic rock. This is their greatest hit 'Ruthless Queen': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZSpWhHbFcY

but this is my personal favourite track 'Merlin' : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0siEExxUiic

NP:
Tracy Hitchings - "From Ignorance To Ecstasy"

Yeah, this is really nice Neo-Prog stuff. Indeed, very much Shadowland-ish.
This sort of music always gives me a warm comfortable 'home'-feeling.

Or perhaps it's the Tripel-beer I'm having right now...

The Butterfly Man

JP: Kino - Picture
NP: Arena - Contagion Max

I think I may have to revise my opinion about my favourite Arena album. It used to be Immortal? but Contagion Max surpassed it. I love this album.

NP Opeth - Pale Communion

On progstreaming.com ... and very different from what I was expecting, even if I don't know any Opeth album yet  :-[

The Butterfly Man

NP: Pain of Salvation - Falling Home

Where is the PoS that I love? This is a nice acoustic album, but nothing more than that.

Pleasantly surprised or waste of time? Can't get that clear if I read this ;).

I was hoping for 12:5 prt two but from what I read this is not the case.
PoS kinda let me down with the two Road Salt albums, which has it's moments, quite raw but overall it doesn't match their previous work.
Don't mind a step from a certain path but for me they are heading the wrong direction.

Hopefully they can change that in the future.

Rather pleasantly surprised indeed and certainly not a waste of time  :)

Opeth ~ Damnation

Every once in a while I have to listen to Windowpane.
Such an amazing song.
Really like the new way they've turned into but albums like Damnation are not forgotten in Mad's lair. ;)
