I haven't heard the new album, but I was VERY happy with Entering the Spectra.  (The first one never really caught my attention, though.)

I bought Wheel Of Life several months back and thoroughly enjoyed it. It didn't blow me away, but I found it to be worthy to keep earmarked for the future. I then got Who's The Boss... and that really got me to take notice. Such a dramatic leap forward. I hope Jonas keeps this going.

All Prog music lovers are opinionated - that is after all what our music is all about!! I see that the ratings for all 3 albums have been high - maybe a prog masterpiece or two in the making!!!!

You should read my review of the album, I gave it much praise. Like others have said too, I did an interview with Reingold and it turned out great.

See, I'm not an a****le (all the time) I'm just heavily opinionated.

It is an excellent album. The title cut really gives me chills. Two Blocks From The Edge is simply haunting! I really recommend this disc.

Hi Rushfan4 - I guess I'm relatively new to PA but when you get to see the same names opposing you all of the time!!!! You aint one of them. I've asked Dean to close my Lyrics thread which I believed would do some good - cos it becoming a war zone!!!! And I am trying not to be controversial with some. Ah Well!!!

Imagine - if you will - coming onto Progarchives and seeing that Rush aint here!!!!!!
 
My friend, there are better things to spend your energy on; for yours is a losing battle, and not a way to win friends and influence people.  Now praising Karmakanic (and of course Rush) will get you far on the other hand. Wink

I guess I don't. I'll just resign from PA now. Thanks, you've opened my eyes to music.

Hey Rushfan4 - I agree whole heartedly with what you say although I have tried the Flower Kings a couple of times - greatly prefer Karmakanic - the reviews here - allbe they few are all shining! They blew me away and I hadn't heard them until yesterday!!!

The Strat/Korn schtick is getting old. Wink  I  believe that you have ruffled enough PA feathers with those suggestions to last you a lifetime. 
 
I discussed this recently elsewhere, but the Flower Kings are one of those bands that proggers either really love or really hate.  There are some in-betweeners that love some of their albums and hate others, but for the most part I think you either love them or you hate them.  I'd say that those that love them, also tend to eat up all of the various solo efforts and side projects as well.   Those that hate them have little interest in trying the solo efforts and side projects, and are most likely to not like them if they do get around to trying them.  As with any statement like this, there are always going to be exceptions to the rule, but this has kind of been my general observation in regards to these bands.
