    It's great that the Drucks are back! I'm not one to listen to samples on my computer, so I can't wait to get the CD.

    Yes, for sure. I like what I hear on Bandcamp.

    These guys are the real deal. I’d put them alongside Moth Vellum and Mars Hollow: modern prog bands with a respect for the 70s masters without turning into an empty rehash of Yes/Genesis licks, and neither do they make a sad attempt at courting a mass audience by diluting their sound with ill-fitting genres (i.e.: death metal, 90s alterna-mope or 80s AOR). The new album is really, really good. I’d say the singer is somewhere between MV and MH; not as good as the former, but better than the latter (for the record, I liked the vocals in both bands).

    Took it for a spin tonight. Lots of great stuff on here. A worthy follow up to the excellent first album. Definitely worth checking out.

    Listening to the songs on Bandcamp. Quite nice. It's a bit more fusion-y than prog to me, as if by adding vocals to these complicated jams they could turn them into songs. But I have to admit it's been addicting and I may need to spend a bit of my next paycheck on it.

    It reminds me of old Cairo a little.

    Yeah - I agree with this assessment...except I think the level of musicianship (vocals included) is a significant cut above the pack. Good stuff!!

    Bought and downloaded both their albums the other day from Bandcamp -- without getting shortchanged on the extras.

    As an aside, I wish there was a better search engine on Bandcamp. Just saying.

    Listening to this for the 3rd time right now, and I'm equally as impressed as most people posting in this thread. This is a very good album, I think surpassing the first by quite a bit.

    The vocals are what stand out for me above the other two bands mentioned.

    It's on iTunes.
    I just downloaded it without listening to any previews. I dug the first album, so this was a no brainer.
    Listening now & yep, I made the right decision. Stellar!

    Anyone in the Toronto area should see about getting an invite to their CD listening party April 28th, at The Antler Room at 8 PM. I'm pissed, I can't go, but you should, it would be a blast!

    Yeah, I liked this decently enough on first listen, but it's been growing on me more and more. I think I really like the random breaks into Rush-style riffing amidst all the typically fluttery prog arpeggios. It's like, "Okay, we can play, now some rawk to remind you what it sounds like."
