There is a lot of VERY quirky stuff on the album! :lol

It's brilliant though, typical Haken really but taken to the next level.

Hi guys!!!

I just joined this forum to be welcomed by tons of great posts supporting our band, thanks a lot! I'm really glad your all digging what we're doing. Thanks a lot Rich for keeping everyone posted on our current activities.

We're all extremely sorry about the delay with the album deliveries. Unfortunately, we don't deal with the sales side of things over here, so there's not much we can do. But it is certainly a bit of a pain!!! Thanks for hanging in there, it'll be worth your wait...well we'll let you decide that  ;D

We're also going to be featured in the next issue on 'classic rock presents prog', its a great magazine that is instrumental in pushing prog to the next level!

Once again guys, thanks a lot for all of your support!

Hen, welcome! :D

You'll be amused to hear that Pete and I split the cost of downloading the album from Play.com because we couldn't wait any longer, so technically we'll end up owning 3 copies between the two of us. :lol The album is fantastic though, so it was definitely worth it! Drowning In The Flood in particular is just an insanely good song.

Why are the mailpersons so slow?
I think it's the record label rather than the postmen.

Oh Parama, just to warn you, the cheesy moments are not even close to gone. There are a couple of moments where I almost forgot I was listening to a metal band and thought I was listening to Disney. :lol

Yo!

Thanks a lot for ordering the album guys, lets hope it arrives very soon! Thanks again for being so patient.

Hi Timmyhiggins, We're definitely going to be playing some shows very soon. We'll hopefully set up some kind of tour during the summer alongside some festival dates.

Oh Parama, just to warn you, the cheesy moments are not even close to gone. There are a couple of moments where I almost forgot I was listening to a metal band and thought I was listening to Disney. :lol

Hahaha, you know it makes sense  ;D.

Ordered the CD just a couple of days ago, your MySpace samples sound great!  :)

Would that be a real European tour or more of a UK only thing?

I'm glad your digging the samples Kyo. We'll definitely aim to play a few shows in Europe at some point during the summer. If we get on any european festivals, we'll try to plan a mini tour to coincide with the festival. Where abouts are you from?

SHUT UP I KILL YOU!

How you liking the music? Is the first half of Drowning in the Flood not the most badass thing ever? The correct answer is yes.

Music? Who cares about the music, all I care about is holding the actual CD while remembering that unfortunate people in undeveloped nations in other parts of the world can't have what I have.

I'd have a word with the label if possible, they don't seem to have even sent the discs to the sellers yet.
