    Hi Jim, loved the video. Your reaction to the track was like mine, WOW ! At 62 years of age I've heard it all, so it takes something quite different to make stop and listen these days. I stumbled across this band only last week via Facebook, think someone shared the video or something. Anyway i clicked on it and was totally blown away with what i heard, totally awestruck.

    Hi Jim. I came back to this video prompted by a post on Facebook regarding the band and this track. I found them through the 'Wake Vortex' video that kept popping up on my news feed which in turn made me pop along to the old TH-cam to check them out where i came across this video. It was great to see someone who had been blown away just like i had been when i watched the video. What have i just , heard, where has this band been, who are they, were questions i asked myself, they were an absolute breath of fresh air in comparison to the minefield of prog music that appears these days. I just hope they don't disappear because they will be a big loss, well to me anyway. I see their lineup has changed already with a new female vocalist.

    I enjoyed this song quite a bit. It's different from what I'd normally listen to, but I think I need to find a playlist to include this group in.

      This is a band I haven't heard of so thanks for the recommendation, may I repay the favour and recommend Pure Reason Revolution? Very Porcupine Tree/Wilson-ish, should be right up your alley.

    Ps. Listening to Sea of Tranquility now. Love it. Gonna seek out more from this band. Another highly recommended band which I had never heard of! Glad you’re back.
    Pss…(I keep adding to my comments) Have now downloaded their 2019 album The Importance of Mr Bedlam. Really good.

    I agree with your take on the band. I picked up their 1st album, The Importance Of Mr Bedlam, and couldn't stop listening for weeks. Loved the album which was based on extra terrestrials coming to Earth. Listen to Earthbound or Cycles. Had heard Sea of Tranquility from the new album and enjoyed it as well.

    This is SUCH A GREAT BAND!!! The voices of Nicole Monique Johnson and Daniel Sorrell are just out of this world! Their new album is about autism (as diagnosed at Daniel's son - due to which the album was written). I just ordered their new album. You should also listen to their previous album 'The Importance of Mr. Bedlam. It doesn't contain any weak song. Brilliant!!

    • @JimNewstead
      @JimNewstead  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I think that will be high on my must go and listen to next list - several people have commented and said it's very strong! And autism in children has suddenly in the last few months become massively important to me.

    Brings to mind a couple of things. That moody keyboard intro reminded me of Goblin. I also thought of Anekdoten, ( think Opeth crossed with King Crimson).

    • @JimNewstead
      @JimNewstead  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I know Anekdoten well.... I didn't immediately make the connection but now you mention it, it's definitely there. I don't know Goblin. Another for the "must do my homework and listen to more music" pile!

    I like the several background noises that make it extra interesting.
    Great singing. Yes, I like this immediately and that doesn’t happen very much. Normally I have to hear a sing at least twice before I decide if I like it.
    I think you will like the band Scarlet Stories with their debut album Necrologies.
