Dream the Electric Sleep was recently added to progarchives! Heretics hasn't received much attention but it sure deserves it. The album can be downloaded for free (name your price) at http://dtes.bandcamp.com/

My personal favorite album of the year (so far), give the album a try! Be sure to read THE GUIDE TO HERETICS for a little insight on the concept. http://www.dreamtheelectricsleep.com/a-guide-to-heretics.html

Opinions welcome, long live prog!!!!  Clap

I've heard this album a few times now, and it reminds me a lot of The Deer Hunter, only more rocking. Not a complete fan of the indie-like vocals though, but the music is pretty goodSmile

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Hi,
 
That title ... yeah!
 
Usually I'm not one for pointed titles ... but anyone having Virginia Wolff in the cover ... hmmmm ... hope the music is as good as any of Sally Potter's excursions into Virginia Wolff and her work!
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

At that moment, "Heretics" is number 3 in my 2014 top albums. Cool

I downloaded a copy yesterday after reading some of Gallifrey's review. I would say its a sturdy 70 minute + album. Reminds me a tad of Amplifier but not so much Muse as was suggested by Gallifrey.

I've been listening to this on Spotify - very good album, warrants a few more listens I believe.

Does anyone else think they remind you of Motorpsycho? Man what a great tour those two would have together

I downloaded it a while ago but I have so much to listen at the moment that its only been played once. Its certainly a good album.

Couldn't agree more! Heretics rocks my socks off and I've been listening to it for months.

Love this album.  I am a huge fan of the album "Lost and Gone Forever", and I expect that will continue to be my favorite, but each listen of "Heretics" is increasing my appreciation.
