Good pick up Manticle. These lads have been telling me about their band for a few years but have never really looked into it. Jo got me to look up their latest song today, I must say I am pretty impressed.

On the back of the Warped Tour announcements, a shiteload of Parkway Drive

I never knew who did this song. I am slightly ashamed to be listening to a totally awesome breaks compilation by Kurtis Blow.

He's pretty clearly pasted the URL into his post, Brad. Some browsers and devices don't seem to support that behaviour (mine, for example).
 
It seems to be sporadic for me. I'm now in the habit of clicking "more reply options" to check before submitting.

Ah so he has, never mind me, carry on.
 
You can also click the third icon on the top row in the post window and a "special BBcode" option opens and you can pick "media" from the drop-down and the forum will take care of the tags for you. Typing the tags in is easier for me but YMMV.
 
Cool. Will give it a go next time. Cheers all.
 
An oldie I only discovered recently. I listened to later Go4 back in the day, but only found their first album recently. It amazes me this is '79!

About to get some horse the band on with the drive back to mildura airport from renmark. Should go nicely with all the roadkill.. It'll either be them, or protest the hero.
 
hehe, if that was my choice it would be HTB all the way!

hey you're into prog stuff right? you might dig this:

album out today.

Am I into prog stuff?

Is the pope Jewish?

But yes, yes I am. I'm always looking for new prog since I haven't heard too much decent new stuff aa of late... a mate gave me a list of new bands to try out but most of them were just a heavier/more djenty version of periphery (who I do somewhat enjoy listening to)

I shall have to definitely give them a listen when I get some Internet reception in these sticks. I'm excited for the new protest album though. Much more so than karnivool and dream theatre. Not the biggest fan from what I've heard from either of them.
 
DT are one of the worst bands on earth, they're really good at playing scales but their music sucks.

Karnivool were a good band back in the day but I lost interest when they got too proggy.

I presume you're familiar with Textures? Very talented band.
 
I just managed to have a little listen to that helm song and was quite impressed. Reminded me of a mix of red seas fire and karnivool.I might have to listen a little more once I get back home.
 
their first two albums are more rock/croon and less heavy. They got a new drummer & bassist for this album so I guess that's what pushed them into prog territory.
 
I will admit, I really don't enjoy listening to james labrie sing, and many of dt's songs just rurn into musical ******y, but their scenes from a memory album will always remain one of my all time favorites. The story and music behind it really took my love of concept albums to a new level.

Sound awake I thought was a little disappointing, but it was always going to be difficult to follow up with an album as good as themata.

Textures I haven't heard of though. I shall definitely have to look into them when I get home also.
 
RE Textures - I'd start with 'silhouettes' & 'drawing circles'. They're pretty flawless albums imo.

Their first album had a different singer & was more along the lines of thrash/djent/experimental (djent wasn't a term in 2003 - so in a sense they were well ahead of the curve)

The most recent album Dualism has another vocalist again (from the band Cilice - awesome, also check their album out) - but he tends to overdo it a bit. The music is great though.
 
Glorious. Some new bands to get my ears frothing to.. I shall update you with my reviews.


As for beer reviews (and being slightly off topic), the mildura brewery pale ale i just had at the airport was a little disappointing. Can't wait to get home and into some homebrew once again.
 
due to all the talk above I've been listening to Textures all afternoon.
