Then about halfway through it kicked in.

Not my thing at all, but can see the appeal I guess. And yes, quite a video!
Never my thing either. Not even close. Can't explain it.

It just connects with me, for some inexplicable reason.

This is currently scratching a few itches I never knew I had, to the point where I would previously run in the other direction from a band like this. But this caught me hard. A...

Re: Michael Romeo - War of the Worlds Pt 2

I'm pretty pumped about Part 2, as Part 1 is already a desert island disc for me.
Dino probably would not have been my first choice for Part 2, but he sounds damn good here, so I'm all in.

Re: Shadow Gallery appreciation

When I first heard Carved in Stone way back in 95, I had the same initial feeling about the "drama" in Mike's vocals. It took me a little while to digest his presentation. But over the years, I grew to appreciate how special his voice was and how it really fit the uniqueness of the music. Shadow Gal...

Re: Revisiting the entire Royal Hunt catalogue ...

Paradox. That is all... No, not really, but it's definitely the standout disc for me, though I do put on Live 1996 regularly, because DC's take on the previous songs is great. I was a major fanboy during the original DC era, but have sort of cooled on them since then. The newer DC stuff is good, jus...

Nathan is not on these tracks. That's Dean singing. They have apparently parted ways again. Don't know details, just going off of Dean's FB posts. Looks like Dean will be providing vocals from here on.

Addendum: Not sure about The Heist. That may be Nathan.
