Wintersun's Time II is finally out. What do you think? (kbin.earth)

Over a decade in the works and two since Time I, it is here. I've only had one listen so far, and not really enough to offer an actual review, but I'm thoroughly enjoying it. I think I'm going to be coming back to the guitar solo two third of the way through Storm quite a bit.

This album came out yesterday! All the music is written by Arjen Lucassen so it should be of interest to Ayreon fans.

The Haken thread I posted a while ago generated a bit of activity so I might try it again from time to time. Let's rank Leprous' albums in anticipation for Melodies of Atonement. Feel free to include their two demos if you know them (I do not)!

  1. Coal
  2. The Congregation
  3. Bilateral
  4. Pitfalls
  5. Malina
  6. Aphelion
  7. Tall Poppy Syndrome

Holocene is a slow burn but it's really been clicking for me after seeing these guys live. This was perhaps the highlight of the whole show.

  4. Vector
  5. Fauna
  6. Visions
  7. Enter the 5th Dimension
  8. Restoration
  9. Virus (still a fan, just not as much as the rest)

Has anyone got anything similar to Épiphanies exceptional L'aube? (infosec.pub)

This is a phenomenal (but short) album, has anyone got other equivalent they're sleeping on?

bandcamp

It's very proggy, which I love, but also very heavy. Super-tasteful use (sparse!) of blast beats, etc

Picked up a second hand copy of the album Sorceress. Reeeaaallly not a fan of the prog rock version of the band, (But like Damnation so...) I'm giving it a thrash.

Only one week until Charcoal Grace is released, already looking like an early AOTY to me!
