for fans of
The Fall of Troy, ,dredg, Coheed and Cambria , The Dear Hunter, The Mars Volta

Just noticed this band suggested over on the The Dear Hunter forum. The for fans of bands makes some sense.

favorite tracks: "I am that I am" "Sussurus" "Disconnecting From the Grid" "Kneel Estate"

despite their name, album art (and image it appears), I am rather intrigued by this band from Norway, having heard "Flux" their debut record a couple of times.If you like modern progressive rock, these guys sound like they'd be worth checking out.

bump.

they have a new album coming soon (apparently), titled "You Are Creating." 

New song/video "Ectypes" which I guess has to do with their singer quitting the band ( https://p3.no/musikk/videopremiere-22/ )

Recently got into 22 when Limb 1 came out.. so good! I tell people it's kind of like Muse but without all the pretentiousness. I've been eagerly awaiting Limb 2 and am looking forward to a proper listen. (crappy pc speakers at work). I really would recommend this band and the Limb 1-Limb 2 combo to anyone looking for new music!   :metal

it's a great way to showcase the drum sound by introducing the album with that awesome drumming and sound.

definitely, and the Muse comparison is a good one.

Also they'll want to hear FLUX at some point.

Listening to both new releases now. I saw these guys supporting Leprous a few months ago and they were ok.

I'm enjoying Limb 1 so far, Sum of Parts was pretty catchy.

Nooo, they were great! Oh well. Guess 2(0)2(0) was always the target.

Yup.

Been digging them lately, never realised this thread existed. Seems like they really want to stop, so I guess everything is good.
Hey dude slow the fuck down so we can finish together at the same time.  :biggrin:

Today is 2/22/22

22022022
Every number, symbol and shape is communication.
Ultimately it is communication from yourself to yourself.
I have experienced 22 as a number showing up at times of raw, ruthless change.
When my world has cracked, and all the shitstorms of the universe has hit all fans in all known and unknown dimensions, - it has been there, with an irritatingly joyful laugh, saying: "This is what you want! This brings you to life, the life you really desire!" And it did. I am happy for all experiences I have had, and am truly living MY life NOW, instead of just rattling on the surface in a square box.
After many years, wanting to jokingly "get back" at the number, I said to 22: " Ok, fine ! I'll form a band called 22, and we will without compromise convey the same feeling, energy and communication that I get from the synchronistic appearances of thy number!" And so it was.

As within as without:
Now, 22022022 is here in our shared timeline, in a world that is changing in unprecedented ways, at unprecedented speeds. It is brutal. And maybe is it no co-incidence that we have this palindromic strongly symbolig date of 22 on steroids 2day on 2sday, when the world is a saber rattling volcano with a flu.
Or it can be a coincidence. The point is: It doesn't really matter.
What matters is being open to fathom "AND" instead of "EITHER OR".

Now that POWER IS SO YESTERDAY, you can CALL ME TRIMTAB, invest in KNEEL ESTATE, have a chat with an INSPEC, saying: "do not fret over your ADMAN KADMAN BODY MASS INDEX. You've GOTODO less, and find a LOOPWHOLE to EXTRA SENSORY PLAY". A MUTATION OF THRUSHES drawing ALGORYTHMs in the sky, as CHRYSALISes crack like bells in SERAFIN's MOLECYLar music machine. In a world of ECTYPES, playing games of MIND vs MIND in PLASTIK panting pants, heaving for OXYGEN. DISCONNECTING FROM THE GRID is fun, but it is more fun to enjoy the soft SUSURRUS of life whilst STAYING EMBODIED, feeling proud and saying out loud
"I AM THAT I AM"!
Trust your ABDOMENTAL faculties more than AKIRA's GLUEY project.
We are more than SUM OF PARTS, and ultimately: YOU ARE CREATING.

Magnus.

Not going to lie, most of that made no sense to me, but this part: "What matters is being open to fathom "AND" instead of "EITHER OR".", I'm stealing.

Call me TRIMTAB! :lol
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol
