http://www.myspace.com/beholdthearctopus I may well check this out. I'm quite surprised Rudess would guest on it, as he's not known for doing guest spots. |

Their drummer played on his new solo album, so that probably has something to do with it. |

Rudess is on it? w00t! I hope he doesn't do some out-of-place ragtime bullshit. Again. |

I quite like his ragtime bits. |

Well, it might not have been a rag time solo, but it sure sounded close to being one. |

It has more balls than Systematic Chaos does, but that's irrelevant to this topic... Give Endless Sacrifice a listen again. The rag time thing is somewhere at the beginning of that uber-long instrumental section. |

It's awesome in Dance of Eternity but admittedly "meh" in Dark Eternal Night. |

Well, whatever it is in Endless Sacrifice, it's annoying too. |

Kinda disappointing album so far... their EPs had like ownage jamming and groove while this one just sounds too planned out/technical and not energetic enough it might be because I heard it and the new Blotted Science in the same week and Blotted Science's album is fucking amazing. |
