well .....  sh*t happens ....  :sad:

" The shoot yesterday (last Thursday) at Imagefm.ca would have been great if the kickdrum head didn't break 2mins. into The Dream! Unfortunately, we're going to have to reschedule the HD video shoot. But to hold you off until then, why not go help yourselves to a downloadable desktop background on our brand new splash page!! "

Question... Amazon  mp3 has another 4-song EP from Pyramid Theorem.  When was that released?  For $4, I can't think that it's not worth it.
That's a word salad - and take it from me, I know word salad
I fear for the day when something happens on the right that is SO nuts that even Stadler says "That's crazy".

I thought Johnny said it was a 2008 demo. And it is definitely worth it.

That is correct.

The songs are quite good, Town In Ruins has some wicked guitar riffs and drum fills. Secret About Secrets is like Rush mixed with Ozzy. CD Baby or Amazon might be cheaper than iTunes.

For the newer fans of this band, its nice to see how much they have developed at this stage from the beginning.

Just remember, the kid playing guitar is just that:  A kid.  I don't say that in a dismissive way.  I envy his youth, but I'm also amazed at his virtuosity when you consider how young he is.  Just imagine what he'll be doing when he's the same age as Petrucci  :o    :hefdaddy




I'd really love to have him play a solo on the next The ANABASIS album  :hat

I got my album in the mail, but there seems to be an issue with the disc. Around the 5 minute mark in the final track, and going for about 5 minutes my devices are having trouble reading the disc and it skips around and is generally unlistenable. This happens both on my PC to which it was ripped and in my PS3. I'm going to clean the disc to see if that helps, but as it's brand new I don't think it will.

Yeah, I'm hoping it's just my issue and not everyone's. Figured I'd post here to see if ya'll had the same result or not.

the cd skips on mine as well during the guitar solo of Forever In Chains, damn it of all things. it only skips in the car Cd player, I didnt have any problem when I ripped the disc into my PC. It didnt skip.

I sent a message to the band to let them know.

Hey guys,

Sorry to hear about your issues with the CD.  I myself have listened to 4 different copies of the record and haven't had an issue.  It may have been just a bad disc.  We don't have any copies remaining of our first run of discs, and we are waiting for the second run to come in.  They told me yesterday that it should be about a week or two.  If you want to add me on facebook or email us - pyramidtheorem@gmail.com - when the new discs arrive, we will send them out to you no questions asked.

Again, we are amazed at the amount of praise we are getting from you people on this forum!  Means we gotta be doing something right with our music HAHA!

Thanks again everyone and keep spreading the word!!
