I hear a great version of Death Walks Behind You, and really show that their influences are Atomic Rooster.
But perhaps i stick with the original version.
Good band.

Hex, I think it's more variated, and it has more of my favourite songs.

A good band which deserves more recognition. Kudos to Mike Portnoy for inviting them on the Prog Nation tour. I am very fond of their new album Cheat the Gallows.

I've got Hex but I don't think I've listened to it more than once. It felt too much like Pink Sabbath with no unique input, perhaps I should try again some day.

So did I! It's sad that they only got to play a 30 minute set because I definitely wanted more where that came from! I purchased Cheat The Gallows at the show where I got it signed by the whole band. Back to the poll: My personal favorite is Money Machine followed by Hex, so it gets my vote here.
