Another track

I liked it well enough. At this point, I just really want to hear the WHOLE album in context. The next 8 days are going to be hard to wait through!

Man, for an album I was really lukewarm at best about, I can't believe how much I am liking all the songs they keep releasing.

Want to make a plan to meet up?  I'm heading down early, I hope to be in the City no later than 2:30, 3:00.   I will probably be thirsty at that time.  :)

For me I should be leaving the office at 5:30 and I'm right across the river, so I should be able to be somewhere near the venue at about 6.

Where's the review you posted, Ministro? We're well past the 2-week threshold the label asked for.

Here it is:

I'm only getting in that early to miss what will otherwise be brutal traffic.  Toying with the train, too, though I know me, and I'll likely bail on that at the last minute as I usually do.

I don't know much around that area, but I'm going to do some recon.

Even though four songs have been released, that still equates to "only" 24:43 of the album's 66:30 running time.

Definitely the best out of the songs they've released for this album so far.

Got my mp3 download from Mascot Records in my email. Can't wait to give the entire album a spin!

EDIT - Gave it a spin this morning, and first impressions are positive. While I was initially luke-warm to some of the singles, they sound great within context of the whole album. The unheard songs are real treats, as well, though some may have issues with some sections of the two longer songs having very similar-sounding Neal Morse/Transatlantic/NMB moments, but with Steve's guitar tone and Casey's vocals, they really help set this music apart from Neal's. I'm surprised at how LITTLE Neal (and Mike) get behind the mic on this one compared to the first two.

I'm definitely digging this one, and I'm excited to dig into it further as the week goes on. I'm excited to read everyone's opinions on the album and its songs, and I can't wait to get my CD Limited Edition so I can hear the bonus tracks!

-Marc.

Got mine too yesterday. Have listened once but can't really say anything other than it's good, but to tell how good it is needs more listenings.

What I like is that the instrumental version aren't just tracks without vocals but tracks with really different instrumentations and playing. Not sure if I will play them often but it's way better than some tacked on karaoke versions.

From what I've read in reviews, it sounds like Geronimo is going to be a fun track! Really looking forward to hearing it, along with the rest of the album. I personally haven't picked up any NMB albums (although I am tempted by The Great Adventure), so even though some/many of you might be overdosed on Morse/Portnoy albums, I am not. I'm pumped for this.

listened to the album a couple of times and it unfortunately gives me few smiles around my mouth. Some parties are good but for me it is a rush project once again. 3/6

👍👍👍. Maybe their best. "Love Letter" is a tune many POWER POP fans could love.

Deluxe CD Edition CD showed up in the mail yesterday (with the poster) and while I probably won't be able to give it the attention it needs for a few days yet,

 I did crack it open and look it over. Seems like the photo book is an expanded version of the CD booklet.

 Looks great. Can't wait to dig in and commit to memory before next week's show.

On random thought.  One of the photos had a "Wrapped Around Your Finger" vibe to it. Not sure who's idea that was. Looks like I'm going to need to fiddle with my Flying Colors shelf to fit this in with the other two live and studio releases.

Third Degree is the album I wanted for FC to make originally: more power prog pop than prog in the TA/Neal Morse vein. I was underwhelmed  by the first one.  I didn’t like the second one except for one or two songs since it was very heavy on the prog. On this one, I haven’t skipped a track. Album is full of melody and Casey’s vocals are great. Some heavy Beatles choruses on this one.

Yup, that's why I said this one it's better than the first 2. This is a great album!!!
