Welcome back, Funky Boy 

Had my fill of Anubis Gate - but it was great 

So NP  Beatles:  Abbey Road

Man, this album is total brilliance 

Aint that so, Funky ?

Nicky.

My fave Beatles album knocking Sgt pepper into second spot 

[Peter]

np-> Seventh Wonder - [Mercy Falls  (2008)]  #04: Unbreakable (7:19)   

[Teunis]

2:23 to be exact.

Thanks, listened to it. Well noticed, nothing wrong with your ears . The fact that I didn't mention it before proves that I don't find it that disturbring here .... or there's something wrong with MY ears .

Well... don't know if it classifies as a real growl. More like a grunt perhaps.

Oooh, watch out for Nicky .

Anyway, it's one of those death metal thingies, which normally won't be found on a Neal Morse album indeed.

Wouldn't have expected it from Neal. But okay, we'll forgive him  .

therefore np: Neal Morse - Testimony Two; disc two

Track 2: Supernatural

before: The Reasoning - Acoustically Speaking

[PH]

I think it suits that particular bit. It's indeed a bit of a 'hidden' growl/grunt/snore, since it's mixed behind Neal's clean vocal.
Still... who is it??!!

PP Seventh Wonder : Mercy Falls Peter made me think of this one.

NP Pendragon : The Masquerade Overture I am listening to it on headphones and enjoying it much more than I ever did, which is cool

that is my fave album from the pendies 

Listened to noel gallagher high flying birds this morning but fancy something a bit heavier on the way home

Maybe some Cathedral or Down or Paradise Lost or ,, s9me Opeth for the first time in about a year 

[Nicky007]

Oooh, watch out for Nicky .

You guys got some fetish, man 



Here's a group that's completely ungrowly, ungrunted, and all that, in fact they mainly sing in the higher registers (very proficiently), and even so they'r more difficult to get into than most any growly group I know. So how dya like those apples, guys ?

NP  Anubis Gate:  Self-titled (latest album)

I now regard this group as one of the most genre-defining prog groups around, simply mind-boggling 

All their five albums are very different, and all have been groundbreaking, musically and lyrically - this is some monster prog band 

I'm happy that Lance King now has taken them under his wings 

Funky, Mad, Iggy, Tom, Bupie, maybe even Paxi and Greenie 

Nicky.

PP Pendragon - The Window Of Life

NP Kansas - Somewhere To Elsewhere A very valuable last effort to celebrate the new century ...

[Teunis]

You guys got some fetish, man 

PP Pendragon - The Window Of Life

That's my favourite Pendie album!

Steve Thorne - Crimes & Reasons
Wolverine - Communication Lost
Antimatter - A Dream For The Blind (acoustic)

[Nicky007]

NP  Vangough:  Manikin Parade

Great album, very expressive and melodic, occasionally quite heavy 

Related groups: PoS, Yes, PT, Flower Kings

Happy to share this great music with you, Funky 

You can easily get Andromeda and Detached too 

I'v ordered AG's first two albums, Purification (2004) and A Perfect Forever (2005), as they'r becoming collector's items. From the samples I'v heard, they'r fine too 


NP  The Shadow Theory:  Behind The Black Veil

Another great album 

Recommended to the same crowd, Teunis and Cap too 

Related groups: Threshold (TST has Johanne on drums), Deadsoul Tribe (Devon is mainman in both), Arena

NP  The Shadow Theory:  Behind The Black Veil

Recommended to the same crowd, Teunis and Cap too 

np: The Shadow Theory - Sleepwalking (on YouTube)

followed by the track 'A Symphony Of Shadows'
seems not my cup of coffee ... really dislike the singing, yuk . I bet you knew it Nicky .

[Nicky007]

I bet you knew it Nicky .

No, I actually meant my recom, Teunis. The thing is that this is a very varied album. The pieces one finds currently on YouTube reflect the heavy and harsh part of the album. Try instead   www.the-shadow-theory.com   click music, and click nb 3, Ghostride, a very atmospheric song, and afterward you get the beginning of the wonderful Welcome. This site will give you a better impression of the album 

Devon Graves is one of my top 3 singers 


NP  The Shadow Theory:  Behind The Black Veil  (on repeat)

NP  Gary Hughes & friends (D. C. Cooper, Lana Lane, Irene Jansen, Bob Catley, and more):  Once & Future King, Part II

Gary at his best, a wonderful rendition of the Arthurian Legends

NP Vangough Manikin Parade. Pretty good description Nicky.

[Nicky007]

NP  Shadow Gallery:  Digital Ghosts

Second run. It doesnt (yet) grip me the way that e.g. Behind The Black Veil and Andromeda Unchained do, but I know that the SG albums are real growers ..... 

Nicky.

[funkster]

The shadow theory and might fine it is as well

After that i will give the new paradise Lost , tragic idol , a spin or 2

[Nicky007]

The shadow theory and might fine it .. as well

I don't think you'l get anythin outta it, Funky, as they don't have much money 

After that i will give the new paradise Lost , tragic idol , a spin or 2

OK, tell us what you think about it - after a few spins 


Needed somethin heavier than SG, so

NP  Anubis Gate:  Self-titled
