Re: New Vanden Plas song (kind of...)

Saw that the other day and wondered what is going on here. Sounds exactly like Vanden Plas to me though their description made it seem like it was going to be more melodic rock. Maybe the rest of the album will be different from Vanden Plas but at least for this track I don’t hear any difference. Gr...

Acute Mind - Under The Empty Sky (2020)

Excellent stuff from Poland. Some of the comparisons I've seen mentioned were Dream Theater, Threshold and Riverside. I would say a mix of Threshold and Riverside (+ Dream Theater too). Maybe even some heavier Saga sound at times. I really enjoy the singer for his simple approach which kind of gives...

The two SIAM albums were great at the time, but unfortunately they sound a bit dated today.

Thanks for this! I went and bought the Black Painted Moon. Nora Jones meets Dream Theater! I was thinking she sounded like Amy Winehouse at times but Nora Jones is probably more accurate. Bought the album and it's excellent. More people should check them out. https://blackpaintedmoon.bandcamp.com/
