They're not quite metal, but their new album, In Glorious Times, kicks some serious ass. Progressive stuff but not like 'oooooh let's do nothing but shred all day' progressive shit. Openminded fans should definitely check 'em out... I know I really like 'em after my friend turned me on the new album.

Great band, I love their "Grand opening and closing" album.

I just got into these guys, I love in glorious times. I was totally surprised by how original these guys are, its definitely worth checking out. SGM is easily one of the best cds I've bought in a while. I dont have grand opening and closing...anybody know how they compare?

Just bought "In Glorious Tmes" and I must admit it's as good as their debut album. A must have !
