One of the greatest vocalists I've had the pleasure of hearing. I love his dramatic, variable style. He definitely added to the songs he sang with The Flower Kings too.
However, Zitro, I think we feel the exact opposite about their albums. I think Scarsick and One Hour By the Concrete Lake are their two worst efforts. Particularly their most recent. One Hour...has a few amazing songs, but a lesser quanitity are a bit weak. Scarsick has only two excellent songs (Disco Queen and Kingdom of Loss); the other ones are lacking. For seven minutes of song they hardly get anything accomplished with them, I think.
I love the other four, and I think the sequence from The Perfect Element through BE are all five-star albums.

Disco Queen excellent?  Definitely get Entropia, it is my favourite album by PoS.

I think it's a whole lot of fun, and for such a wacky experiment it really wasn't too bad. It also is one of few songs that leaves a melody in your head after you listen to it.

It's a good song especialy live, quite a weird experiment, but it clicks.
I have more problem with the predictable nu-metal standards on Scarsick, and the abonination called America.Cribcaged starts nicely but it turns horrendous after the first few notes.
Nobody should miss Entropia who is interested in Pain of Salvation's works!

The problem is you're SO WRONG... I mean, If you had told me you had a crush on Steve Howe or Geddy Lee, then I'd understand, for I sometimes have fantasies about me and them in dreamy, prairie-like landscapes... but Daniel?? Daniel hates America... Ergo, he probably hates you.

I went to see them live yesterday at a club here in Copenhagen and wow, did Daniels voice sound great.. I was amazed by the his ability to vary his voice from rapping, to singing low and gentle (undertow, Halleluja, Jeff Buckely cover) to bursting out in screaming emotion (ashes, plus many other songs i didn' knew) . Another great thing i noticed was how the band acted on stage, they really seemed to be enjoying themselves, and looked very happy. So, thumbs up or PoS!
