I love Transatlantic. It'll be great to hear those guys come out with something new. I am a huge Neal Morse fan. I'm really really excited for the new Shadow Gallery CD coming out on November 3rd in the states as well. I'm gonna get both! It's gonna be an awesome month for us prog fans

it give me a sense of "blues meet progressive rock".

frontman's voice(is it roine stolt?) is really catering to blues style.

No, Morse is the lead singer.

8. SOUL SACRIFICE (Santana)

I used to listen to that song everyday when I was 15! I only had the S/T debut album.

I remember when I got "Bridge Across Forever" and actually hated it the first couple listens...just like Spock's Beard Snow. But as time past I kept trying to listen to it and it really grew on me. What your guys impressions? It was pretty much my first prog-rock album

I loved Bridge Across Forever at my first listen but took a while to get into SMPT. I still prefer Bridge Across Forever, by far, but SMPT is great too.

This, almost exactly.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

I've heard.... less than stellar things. Like, apparently the album/song just meanders a lot and never really develops any main catchy theme/leitmotif, ala their other songs.

I dunno. I'll still get the album, but.... this isn't just "The Third Transatlantic Album." This is, "The Song That Comes After Stranger In Your Soul." That's a tough act to follow.

I'd be more than happy to be proven wrong.

I can't imagine this being anything less than spectacular myself... and until I hear otherwise that's what I'm assuming it's going to be.

There is just too much potential in this band not to turn out something amazing.

That!

I'm counting on the usual Dutch release dates, i.e. a couple of days before the regular one. So that should be next friday already!

I honestly am not banking one way or the other on whether I think it will be "spectacular."  I'm just banking on it being something I will most likely enjoy.

Ordered the deluxe edition with NM´s live CDs.

It's funny how out of place MP looks among the other members of the group.
What do you mean? is it how he looks?

Pretty much. Everyone else looks like an older prog guy. Even though MP is in his 40's, he looks younger and more metal.

Definitely, MP looks much younger than the other guys. He looks 30-ish, I'd say.

Having preordered it a long time ago, I'm really hoping to get it around mid-late this week. If not, tuesday will have to do.

Good. I'd rather know that I'm going to get something on a certain day than take a gamble on it arriving later than planned.

Still stoked. I've been listening to Transatlantic at least once every day for about a week now.  :D
