Very interesting new song from Tarja: It's basically piano-driven symphonic atmospheric metal. Honestly, her vocals are the least cool thing about it. I'm a fan of this.

Level 10 - Chapter One (2015) Featured player: Russell Allen Using two numbers in the band name and title but choosing to represent one with words and one with figures is just the first misstep on this Frontier Records “supergroup” debut (aka another project that went nowhere and never...

Symphony X - Underworld (2015) As of the time of this posting, the final Symphony X album final arrives (hilariously I still have over 25 more albums to review - none of them being our lazy bois). Underworld is a bit of a mystifying album and I have about as much to say about it as I did...

Trump, talking about voter IDs, in which he says that 6 year old daughters are "above age". How are you defending this one, @Detective Beauregard or any of you other Trumpers/Centrists who have gone silent around here because of us big bad libs? I'll make it a multiple choice question for you...

Something something fake account something something libs lying again something something Clintons something something I guess we’ll have to wait and see

This is still weird.

I’m not feeling this. Her tone is very clear, which isn’t bad, but it takes away from pretty much the only unique thing about Battle Beast. Also, she’s dodging A LOT of high notes.

MindMaze - Back From The Edge (2014) Featured player: Mike Lepond Mike Lepond ropes a prize bull here, gang! This is honestly so good that it doesn’t even deserve the rodeo. Really catchy, killer power/prog with amazing instrumental sections, good melodies, and legitimately fun songwriting...

New interview with Russell: Highlights: Romeo sent him "10 hours" of material for the new album and there's just too much - that's the hold up. But hopefully, that means the NEXT album would come even quicker. There's no touring beyond this month, so that leaves "all of summer and fall" to...

OF COURSE it's only about money for him! It's not about her crimes against humanity, her complete lack of empathy, her complete lack of skills or her complete lack of leadership - it's only about money. It is ALL Trump cares about. What a sick, twisted, pathetic fucking sack of meat (I almost...

Micheal Pinnella - Ascension (2014) Our favorite keyboard maestro returns with another solo album full of (some) piano, some fuzzy-sounding solos, and some bleep-bloops. Unfortunately, the issues I had with Pinnella's first album continue here: poor production, inconsistent songwriting, and...

How many albums have you written in the last ten years?

This is great! Concise, but does everything I want an Evergrey song to do in 2026. Hell yeah, Tom! This has me excited for the album, especially after OXYGEN! being so meh.

The guy is turning 70 years old next week and has led his band to two magnificent eras of stadium-filling success. I wouldn't be as driven, either. What more does he have to prove?

It's time for an all-new feature of my comprehensive Symphony X Extended Universe ratings! INTRODUCING... Mike LePond's Bass-tacular Metal Rodeo! Ladies and gentlemen, if you think Russell Allen is a bit too willing to contribute to side projects: have you met Mike Lepond? As you will soon...

I think they would not understand the reference.

Resale is absolute bullshit. Keep watching in the days before the concert as they will drop when sellers get desperate.
