My old friend Miguel and I, along with our mutual friend Kyle, have started a Progressive Metal band. We're called Luminary. Check us out if you're into that kind of thing:

You know dammit, I liked that.

I thought long and and hard why I liked it.

You didn't saturate my ears with the screamin.
You blended trditional voice with it.
You created natural sectioning of instrmentation within that was nice.
Instrumentally it was very precise and with obvious talented players.

A piece of me inside struggles with it but
dammit, I liked that. :? [/b]

I'm not huge on the drums, but it's part of the style thing.

Now I have drain bamage ................................

Pretty cool ............. I hate drummers that can play that well, the guitars are nice. Kind of like Rick Astley meets Slipknot no offense :)

I'm a old fart so I'll get the kids to give it a listen
Like Mike said intense

It's a nice band Ryan.

It very much reminds me of when I first heard Audian's work. Progressive Metal/Rock. They were looking for a 2nd guitar and I was blown away by their writing and recording. I jumped at the chance to play with them.

The music on the song I heard here - good. Love the instrumentation, the depth of the melodies in the guitar work, everything going on there. There's some nice writing there musically speaking.

The vocals... I'll never be able to deal with. I just can't get on the Cookie Monster bandwagon. But I know that's the thing with metal nowadays. And that's your thing as well. So good luck! I'd say you have a good chance at doing something with that band. Enjoy.
