WINGS DENIED became a cohesive unit in February 2012. Three months later, the band self-released the Awake EP and ran out of free Bandcamp downloads, being downloaded 200 times in less than 24 hours. After releasing their first EP, the band embarked on a 14-day East Coast tour, co-headlining with Canadian progressive trio The Isosceles Project. The Awake EP was well-received, and was called “truly progressive in a landscape of music where progressive is becoming a dirty word.” Other critics praised the band’s “organic sound” and “[ability] to stand out from the ocean of copycats.” 

After embarking on another five-day tour in January 2013, WINGS DENIED released The Split EP with North Carolina’s As Oceans, followed by a 30-day headlining tour supported by Philadelphia’s A Minor Error. Immediately after this tour, WINGS DENIED enlisted renowned producer/engineer Jamie King (Between The Buried and Me, Scale The Summit, The Human Abstract) to record their first full-length LP. In October 2013, band released a single named “Generation Y,” which is lauded as being “filled with borderline-obsessively intricate guitar and drum parts, soaring vocals, and massive production.” The single announces the highly anticipated upcoming album which will be coming soon to you!

P.S. Love these guys. They are obviously Tesseract-influenced, but becoming more an more original with time.

Sounds pretty good to me, but Thanos is the Prog Metal expert!  Tongue  Quite detailed review of the album here: http://www.heavyblogisheavy.com/2014/04/23/wings-denied-mirrors-for-a-prince/.
 
Metalmusicarchives have them already, filed under Progressive Metal, which is a good sign! And they were added there by Chris (Bosh66), who of course is also a member here, and has suggested a few Prog Metal acts for inclusion here himself: http://www.metalmusicarchives.com/artist/wings-denied.
 
Interview here:
 
 
So we await Thanos's take on them...  Embarrassed

Nicely built suggestion, an example of what new members can do when reading and respecting the instructions.

THANK YOU.

I am adding to the charts - the youtube track is not very proggy IMO but will check full album, thanks.
