^Key words....."To me.." I have heard what is out streaming. 'To me' it is a continuation of Vector, which is a good album. Honestly what has given me a bad taste on Haken was their live performance during the Vector tour....I was reminded of taking my teenage kids to see blessthefall, A7X and Atreyu, loud screamo metal.

Talk about no dynamics.......LOL so relax, me liking (or not) the album should have no bearing on your impressions of the album and direction of the band.

Yep I'm not sure about this album on a few listens but because it's Haken I will listen to it again.

I've been listening to this album a lot, really enjoy it. Contender for my favorite album of the year so far, but I anticipate Wobbler or King Gizzard ultimately taking that spot.

Glad you like it. Carousel is one of the best tunes they've written. Overall, Visions is my favorite Haken album. Give it a listen, if you haven't.

I too am looking forward to Wobbler's new one. Any idea when? And I haven't given up on the Gizzard, but what I've heard (songs from several of their albums) is just meh.

I have received word that Wobblers album is coming out in October and preorders will begin this month^^ I'm a really big fan of King Gizzard, recently i've really been digging their album "Im in Your Mind Fuzz" which is more of a psychedelic rock album than a prog one, but it still kinda scratches that itch. Polygondwanaland is the full blown prog one, Crumbling Castle is one of my favorite modern prog tracks if you haven't heard it yet. Flying Microtonal Banana and Nonagon Infinity are the other two essentials, but if its not for you no worries Smile
