Rancho Santa Margarita, CA – 22 March 2010 – Following up the success of the first effort, Anderson  and ProgRock Records announce the second Terra Incognita CD, “A Line in the Sand” to coincide with the publication of the second novel, THE MAP OF ALL THINGS.  “This CD features a different, grittier part of the story, focusing on the devastating generations-long war between continents, and it has an entirely different sound,” said Anderson.

This time, the music is helmed by Henning Pauly (Frameshift, Chain, Shadows Mignon) and features some artists returning from the first CD as well as new performers.  “Henning is absolutely perfect for this type of music, with hard-driving guitars, passion, and thought-provoking complexity,” said Shawn Gordon of PRR.  “Kevin’s been a fan of Henning’s music for years, and this seemed to be a perfect match.”

“Terra Incognita: A Line in the Sand” Vocals are by rock legends Steve Walsh (Kansas), Michael Sadler (ex-Saga), and Sass Jordan (Album Rock’s Female Vocalist of the Year) and Nick Storr (The Third Ending) with guest appearances by Charlie Dominici (solo, original Dream Theater vocalist), Arjen Lucassen (Ayreon and many others), Alexander Froese (Frameshift) and Juan Roos (Shadow’s Mignon).  Anderson and Moesta penned the lyrics/story again and even cowrote two songs with multi-Grammy winner Janis Ian (“Society’s Child,” “At Seventeen,” etc.).  Due to commitments to their own bands/projects, Erik Norlander and some of the original performers were unable to participate in the second CD.

“With two CDs and two novels, this takes Terra Incognita into unprecedented territory,” said Anderson.  “Progressive rock has always focused on story and ideas.  The union of music and prose has never before been done on this scale.”  Both “A Line in the Sand” (ProgRock Records) and THE MAP OF ALL THINGS (Orbit Books) will be released in June.

I've said it before, but I'll say it again, the first Roswell Six CD and accompanying novel The Edge of the World were both great. The first CD even has James LaBrie on it, along with other names you might know like Gary Wehrkamp.

You people should check it out, and if you like it get the new CD, and the new novel if you enjoy fantasy reading.

How the hell did I miss this thread the first time.  The first CD is real good.  I will be buying this one as well.

The better question is how did everyone else overlook the first CD in the first place.

Because they suck and/or can't find a copy to torrent.  I can't make other people not suck.  I missed it because you posted it while I was in San Fran, and it was buried by the time I got back in town.

Did this exact same thing back in May.  Make sure you get the second album (totally different style though, no JLB, but still completely awesome), and all three books in the trilogy.  Great reading... and great music.
