Most of the power/prog fans here should listen to these guys. This is a bunch of 20-year-olds playing excellent power/prog in the vein of Evergrey/Pagan`s Mind/Dream Theater/Kamelot. Just got a deal with Inside Out who has Devin Townsend on their roster among others. This is great stuff. Their debut, Ripples, will be out the 25th.

Wow! That solo in the middle is amazing! Yeah I hear a ton of Pagan's Mind and Dream Theater. Awesome stuff.

Yeah, they're great! 18-19 when they recorded this, which is kind of baffling to me really, as I'm the same age as them.

Pretty good stuff there Thomas, musically this was really good, however the vocals was a little bit on the weak side, but i chalk that one up to the fact that the vocalist is really young. All in all though it was very nice :dio:

Yeah, I disagree with the vocalist being weak though.. He gets some crap for that, but I wholly disagree to be honest. Heæs awesome.

Having a listen now at Spotify now and it's pretty awesome stuff, the Pagans Mind influences is extremely strong, if you put Nils on this i probably almost would not heard any difference between the two. Not that it is a bad thing, i think this is better than PM latest album.

The keyboard bits in Between Black & White sound EXACTLY like Symphony X. Cool song though.

I think the vocalist sounds like Daniel Gildenlow a lot of the time.
