The release of Circus Maximus - "The 1st Chapter" is a bit crazy. There is a different bonus track for US, Europe and Japan.
To me, the best bonus track of the three is the one from Japan:

I guess this is the perfect thread for me as I am digging more in the past these days exploring neo-prog, hard rock and hard rock/metal. There are some older CDs I bought in 2020 that are still waiting for me to listen to, but so far a top 10 would be: Power - Justice Of Fire (1995) (progressive pow...

***Gaetan - go back and check out *North* when you can ....... usually when I'm in the mood for Everon, this is the disc I go to most of the time. Based on your post, I'm going to go back to Fantasma and Bridge....... I did and just added Everon to my website. I like "North", it is very good to me....

GaetanL

The last album "Flesh & Blood" is at least as good as "Forevermore"! I love it!

GaetanL

This time I really tried Everon and I do like this band! I would say that my favorites albums are "Fantasma" and "Bridge". This is very close to prog metal. Like Claus said, great production!

GaetanL

And the Lynch Mob albums? (I have only "Wicked Sensation", "Lynch Mob" and "Smoke And Mirrors")

Agnieszka Swita - Sleepless I've watched recently the Caamora and the Alchemy DVDs. In an interview, the main female singer, Agnieszka Swita, said she was working on a solo album. I decided to check this out and this is really good. I get what is missing to me in Caamora and Alchemy. That is to say,...

GaetanL

It's just recently that I bought Lynch Mob "Smoke And Mirrors"...

Then I play the song "Believers Of The Day" from Lynch Mob "Sun Red Sun" and I like it better...

Gaetan you should be checking this one out big time ........any Eloy fans should as well.

Currently playing on bandcamp...

GaetanL

Sure - we have one for prog metal and one for neo-prog, so why not also add one for Power Metal? I was reading the forum last night, and Glenn's post about albums that had stood out to him this year let me down the rabbit-hole ... I noticed he mentioned a new band called Deadrisen, which in return ...

GaetanL

I revisited "Brave Live 2013" on Blu-ray: Hogarth voice is not perfect, but very good overall. Better that than not having the real thing (overdubbed), I love this concert! I bought "Out Of Season" on DVD: I get "Seasons End" album in its entirety. Sound and image quality are very good. I like it! I...

GaetanL

I decided to go all the way with this band like I did with Yngwie Malmsteen.

No bad album, that "Pandemonium" disc is truly excellent!

I love this band!

Thanks everyone!

GaetanL

My favorite is "Night Of The Crime" but I don't necessarily wish something in the exact same style. I simply wish something I will like if this happens!

GaetanL

Tad Morose - I was never a huge fan as I really never had any exposure to them. I bought a compilation disc as well as Modus Vivendi. Nice. I'll need to listen further to see if it makes its way into my great category but yeah, this is very tasty so far. "Sender Of Thoughts" is a classic prog metal...

GaetanL

I hope you and the band are all well in these pandemic times. I'm happy to see you are still working on new music. I hope it will be eventually available on CD. I wrote on my website that "Communication Lost" is my favorite album of the 10s (2010 to 2019). Thank you so much to you and the band for t...

Btw - stay clear of their last disc, Mr. Angel. I thought it was horrible.

They have another album after "Mr. Angel" named "The Angels Tear" released in 2004. It''s a return to their prog sound and it is better than "Mr. Angel" which was not really prog or very little.

GaetanL

Speaking of Aragon - they are offering their 2-CD concept disc "MOUSE" for free .............check it out ............... http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=120722 Gaetan - jump on this asap if it's still available for free ............ Interesting ... I'm noticing that some of t...

Dude, this album is phenomenal - I can’t put it down... I'm happy you like it very much like me! "A Tower Of Silence" is an essential neo-prog album! I’ll check that out now - looking forward to it as this new one is just flat out amazing! Ok, at first I thought your comment was for "A Tower Of Sil...

GaetanL

should I give the old albums a try or is this one different from those? "A Tower Of Silence" (2011) is still my favorite album from them. In fact, the 2 albums that I can say really click with me are "A Tower Of Silence" and the new one "Homeless". They don't sound exactly the same but they are not...

GaetanL

To me this is their best since "A Tower Of Silence" (2011).

GaetanL

They may never release again an album as good as "Tangled In Dream"...

GaetanL

Ok, I'm a bit late but I recently discovered this CD reissue. I have replaced my old CD version. You get 2 more live tracks from the show as a bonus: Damien Hall Of The Mountain King Still are these 2 songs missing that are on the DVD (available on the compilation "Still The Orchestra Plays - Greate...

GaetanL

I start with: Icon - Night Of The Crime (1985) https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/1/14/Icon-Night-Of-The-Crime.jpg Essential album in that genre for me. The first album S/T is more raw. This second album "Night Of The Crime" is more polished. First track "Naked Eyes": https://www.youtube.com/...

GaetanL

I'm not a mega fan of power metal in general but I like this. Sometimes we have to listen and forget about the tag. The singer sounds better than in Watchtower from what I remember.

GaetanL

Just because something is repeated doesn’t make it bad I agree. I do like the song "Into The Everflow" by Psychotic Waltz and the song "Sorry" by Chrome Shift. I like also, for example, the repeating riff in "Disconnected Part 2" by Fates Warning. I think the purpose was to create a special mood at...

GaetanL

This really is a great disc ..... aside from the Pigs song, the rest is outstanding +1 Interesting how that one tune is dividing fans - I totally love it and think it’s one of the best on the album but I hear others complain about it. There is something repeating over and over again in the song...

To me this is their best album since "This Is Thirteen" (2007).

For example, I like the melody and the lyrics of this song:
Glass House:

So, I listned to II and was exhausted after the first four songs. His five note range was wearing on me, and based on vocals I couldn't tell any song apart. I can understand this being a novelty act in the late 90s, early 2000s that enthralled the masses because of its uniqueness. That I get. I jus...

For me, Slide it In is an essential Whitesnake album.

For me too now!

GaetanL

SM I and SM II are essential albums to me. SM II has a better production but songwriting wise, for me, it's a tie.
