Apologies, joining this thread late.

Do we have any Dream Theater/Flying Colors/Adrenaline Mob/Liquid Tension Experiment/Other Portnoy band fans in here?

Only discovered the sort of 'prog rock' genre a couple years ago and I love it -- especially Portnoy's drumming!

I got Karnivool's new album, Asymmetry through the post the other day, absolutely fantastic album. I'm not sure I like it as much as Sound Awake, but its certainly a goody!

Been a DT fan since i heard them on John Peels radio show of all places many moons ago. Have you tried Devin Townsend Project? the man is epic

It's a good job there is a lot of variety then, as not everyone likes the same taste of cheese

But would like to see something you have done, that you feel is better?

Disaster · 27 Aug 2013 at 15:28

Whoa mate steady on, no need to be so defensive is there? it wasn't an attack on you... just that song you posted has to be one of the cheesiest things I've listened to recently.

Aeleys · 27 Aug 2013 at 19:34

Not defensive, barely know the band so no reason to be.

I was just saying that not everyone likes the same stuff, which is good.

Enjoying the new Devildriver album, more consistent than some of there others and tracks like ruthless are great.

Aeleys · 2 Sep 2013 at 07:17

Listening to The Dirty Youth at the mo. About time the UK had some more metal coming out of it

Heard the new Satyricon same as their last few albums boring

Weazle · 3 Sep 2013 at 02:11

Gorguts has a new album out .... shame I missed them last year at Camden Underworld as it was the same night as Refused which I already had tickets to

I recently got the new Asking Alexandria album after watching some videos on youtube and am surprised by it, really loving it

I also got the new five finger death punch album today and altho it sounds ok, some of the lyrics are pretty bad

new track from Fleshgod's new album. Anyone who liked Dimmu in their PEM era and then thought they went downhill after should definitely check them out.

Never heard of that band before :eek:

Really like the sound, going to look at getting the album

used to listen to Dimmu a few years ago.
Think this track sounds wicked - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZiA2TrWtpo

Has anyone got the new Avenged Sevenfold's album? I'm sure many on here will like along with their Dads! It sounds very oldie, I absolutely love it. Very Iron Maiden and Guns n Roses feel to some songs.

Robbo · 11 Sep 2013 at 21:17

I have it Andy, it's pretty good.
