I'm a little surprised not to have seen any mention of this so far (unless I missed it).  Anyone else enjoying this album?

Yes, I liked the youtube video posted in the 'what are you listening to ?' thread.

This is not their first album, so I am indeed surprised they didn't get any more attention here (there are too much threads about the usual suspects...you know Yes, ELP, Marillion...their legacy is very big, that's for sure, and they deserve to be discussed, but we shouldn't forget that many young prog bands fight to get some recognition)

I'm a big fan of this band and their previous incarnation as Antique Seeking Nuns. I'll pick this up when it gets to the USA.

I've got Diving Bell (Edition 2012). For me, It was one of the best albums of last year (number 4 in my top). And, in a few weeks, I will buy the new CD. Smile

I own the entire seeking nuns trilogy and the driving bell cd
This video seems rather interesting cause different from the driving bell, the voice is not omnipresent. there is no voice on this song at all and this is what has captured me first listening to this video. But, they are still diging their own proggy-jazzy style I really like. The driving bell was not an album you could play while having some guests opposite of the ASN... I'll take a look on this one, hopping for less vocal oriented songs and I'll surelly buy this album on their bandcamp page anyway. You might also like this album I find some similarities whith :

I got mine in the mail although I didn't order it.Ermm  I'm guessing Matt the keyboardist might have sent me it. Very nice group of guys but since i've spun it only once i'll reserve boasting about it until more listens.

The Weight of the World finally made it's way onto Amazon MP3 store which i discovered last night and did a little dance in my chair. Really great album that is a bit more exploratory than Diving Bell.
