I love this band! I just found a leaked photo of the cover art of their upcoming album:



It's called "Five Roaming Owls

What are your favourite 70's classic rock songs by them?

Left to right: bass player (who just loves the music they put out), singer, two lead guitarists. Drummer and keyboardist are apparently busy elsewhere.

My favourite track is either Children of the Sky or Owl is the Word—both from the same album, but that's 80s era we're talking.
This first band is Soen very cool swingy jazz fusion kinda stuff.

Did you know the band Owl City was named after one of their hit songs in the late 80s? It spawned a new wave and renewed interest in the use of electronic instruments years later. It's a shame they're often excluded from the canon, but SRO were pioneers back in the day.

"Owl is the Word" is the song I had in mind, but that's also a great song! :metal

Now, where have I already heard of an '80s album (1980 actually) with a Children of the something song and as well a Something is the Word song.....

I use my sig to pimp some bands from Italy! Check out Elvenking (Power / Folk metal), Folkstone (Rock / Medieval metal), Arcana Opera (Gothic/Noir/Heavy metal) and the beautiful voice of Elisa!

Truth be told, I'm more of a Thundersword guy myself and didn't get into these guys (other than that one song off the Seis Búhos Itinerantes album that was always on MTV).  But I guess I can see the appeal of this kind of thing.

Anvil, Filth, and the Squat Martian, Whoa! has been getting a lot of attention in recent roulettes, what's your guys' favorite part of the track? I really dig the harmonica symphony breakdown at 8:30, so epic and powerful  :metal

Not to mention that buildup takes 14 minutes :2metal:. Considering the song is 69 minutes I guess it's just a drop in the bucket.

What about the blast beat section with the cowbell just before the sax buildup, that's pretty rad.

Heard they're going on tour this fall, try to catch then at a tree near your town!

For some reason their tour path is just going straight down and they aren't coming back north until next year tho. Weird
