Listened to this on Spotify yesterday; watched the video this morning - great video!  Loved the coloring.

Can't wait for the full album.

Boo-fucking-yah!  Saw them when they played with S-X couple years back, and was hoping there might be a last minute addition again.

Giggity!

they'll probably have some merch, i'll try to find out if they'll be selling the new CD at the show. I'd like to get my hands on the physical CD first, instead of the mp3's

I will for sure. I'm laid up pretty much for another week, so this will be a nice break from 5 straight days of Iron Maiden/Queensryche/UFO.

Once The Lovely Mrs. TAC heads out for work in the morning, I pounce on it.

digging the 2nd track "Cliffhanger"

of course a bit different from the debut, songs more shorter, harder edge, melody driven

So I've listened to it once. But these are my first impressions.

I actually found it less melodic. Yes, it is definitely harder edged.

But it seems to lack the charm of the debut. It's like, yes, we can play our instruments really well.

The track that reminds me of the last album is Lifeline. I love when they channel Hemispheres era Rush, as they do in this track. Reminds me of something Ray Alder would sing.

yeah definitely more harder edge, I prefer the melodic sound like the debut album, but you try as a band to grow more in the song writing capabilities, the vocals are an improvement.

its tough the follow up on your previous work, so I give them credit in keeping it alive

Yeah, I don't want to bum on it. Those were just my impressions after ONE listen. I'm totally stoked for this and I'll get through it a couple more times today. Really great band.

If it was Dream Theater that influenced Rush rather than the other way around, well you just might get Element of Surprise.
Fun album.  :metal
