Arriving Somewhere

Some recent releases by a few of my favorite bands….
Prog mastermind Neal Morsereleased “?” at the beginning of the month and it has received rave reviews.
The Gathering released their first official DVD A Sound Relief earlier this month as well.
Extol creates some of the most complex metal you’ll hear. Their album The Blueprint Dives [...]

Porcupine Tree is finally re-releasing their 1999 album Stupid Dream. As an avid collector of PT I have been waiting a long time for this one.
