I've actually gotten and seen TBK at many record shops, was really excited. Hope you enjoy it soon - but then again i should stop talking it up to prevent that letdown feeling when you finally listen.

Ahh don't worry. I don't think it's possible to talk it more up than it already is
 I have actually spotted it in shops, but the price tag was a little too disturbing for my tastes. LPs are made of vinyl yes? Not sapphires.

I was going to buy TBK the other day (at the only record place in town). I couldn't find it, unfortunately, so I may end up ordering it online.

Found out that Devin Townsend is releasing ZILTOID 2 on OCT/31st.
This guy has been so busy the last 7 years, but anyway I bet I'm gonna love this album a great deal and it should crack my ten easy. 2 album releases in 1 year! |

Sampling some albums in this thread. I've found much of it hard to connect with, but Swans, Boris, Agalloch, and Wovenhand sound promising. Going to purchase TBK tonight I think.

^Nice to see Wovenhand getting a mention. That last album of theirs is really great. Maybe it's the psychedelic and more rocking edge of it, but it really works for them. An act I'd sort of forgotten about for a couple of releases that sounded much too similar.
On another note: There's a new Siinai album out called Supermarket  Hot damn!!!! I had no idea until Matti just added the album to our database, so yeah THANK YOU Matti! Wow...I really dig these guys. Their debut album received quite a number of reviews worldwide - mostly due to it being called Olympic Games and being released around the same time as the Games visited London. Their sophomore release was a collab with Moonface, and took their punchy and swirling post-rock meets Krautrock and mixed it with the dark romanticism of the 80s - Bowie vocals and all. Fantastic album really. Really looking forward to hear where these guys are going next....although I have a sneaking suspicion that they've moved a wee bit back towards their initial sound. Anyways, here's a tune off it called Shopping Trance, if you're intrigued.

Damn that's quite a list!
If I had that kind of dough to spend on new releases, I'd be a happy bunny On an unrelated note; it seems as if this one  is dividing people even more that their first couple of albums did. Metal heads eh?  It used to be "You can't put dreamy floating thangs in metal!!!!!" Now it's more "Where's the freakin' metal in the dreamy floating thangs?!?!?!!"

It's been a decent year for prog but nothing has really blown me away so far (though I'll concede I am a little behind. I really like the new Opeth album and the releases by IQ, Mostly Autumn and Transatlantic warrant a mention.
However the best new album I've heard this year is not on PA, it's Reachy Prints by UK electronic band Plaid. The track Hawkmoth is simply one of the best pieces of music I've ever heard. If anybody out there likes their progressive electronic music from the IDM school but with a very proggy influence you could do a lot worse than to check this out. Dave, knowing your taste, this might be right up your street if you're not already familiar with it.

Nah it's news to me, so thanks for that
Sounds like it's right up my alley.Btw Have you checked out Siinai yet? I posted a track by them in here earlier today called Shopping Trance. I think you'd like it. Very nice electronics indeed.

^Yeah, I like that Dave, nice, repetitive and quite hypnotic - had me head nodding most of the way through. I will look into them properly. The video is pretty hilarious too. Cheers
