There are two new discs that I think some of you guys should check out.
My Dying Bride--The Dreadful Hours and (as I am sure most have already)
Symphony-X--Live on the edge of Forever.
Now you can say what you want about My Dying Bride and the last couple
of albums. Personally I didn't like them much. However, their new
album is excellent. It is like they took the best elements of Opeth,
Type O Negative, and their own stuff to make a dark, moody, gothy,
progressive album. There are some string arrangements that really
impressed me. This is definitely the surprise album of the year for me.
I picked up the live Symphony-X: Live on the Edge of Forever double disc
today. I am always a bit cautious about live albums. Most live albums
suck for one of two reasons. One, they fail to capture the live feel.
Two, they suffer from poor mixing. Overall this is a great live cd. It
does capture the live feel well and the mixing is good. The only small
complaint is that in certain parts I would have had Michael Pinnella's
keys a little louder.
DT-LSFNY is my favorite live album BTW.
