I am absolutely hooked on this band. I actually got into them with last year's release Polaris which has some fantastic ambient music mixed with some more heavier music reminding me a bit of Dream Theater. This band is one of my favourite modern prog bands and deserves some attention hence this thread here. Pondered over whether to put it here or in the metal sub but it has more prog than metal enough to belong here. The evolution from One through to Polaris is really good. One did have more harsher vocals but from Altered State onwards it has all been nice clean singing. Also there is a Concealing Fate EP but you'd be better off buying One as that has all the EP songs on it plus 5 original songs with it.
