    Any hope that this outfit will ever hit the road?

    There was a fairly lengthy interview online i listened to, and he said he'd tour after a second album. He didn't want to tour with just one album of material because he said he wasn't going to add covers for filler.
    Promising for a second album! Good luck nailing Minnemann down...

    Well I like Marco and would probably check this out live to see if it's up to snuff.

    Keep using Roine Stolt?

    Seriously though, I wish them success. I think Beggs deserves to have success with his own progject.

    yeah was thinking King---he's important part of Hackett---but sure there will be time.

    Pre-ordered mine but got a note from Amazon that it will be delayed. Wonder why?

    That's odd as mine arrived from Amazon today. Perhaps they ran out? That would be a good thing for Nick.

    I am pretty impressed with this album. It covers a lot of musical ground and has some really outstanding material on it. Definitely an impressive debut.

    Picked this up at Newbury Comics last night (along with SW's 4.5). First impressions? Like Luke Machin's "Machine", I find it to be stylistically all over the map...which is a good thing.

    I also picked up Mute Gods and the new Steven Wilson. Nothing better to do on a cold grey weekend than listen to some new music. So far, I really like both a lot.

    Got it last night, and it's wicked! And it's all over the place, popish, jazzy and proggish! Of course how could you go wrong with these fine musicians? I do hear some Steven Wilson influences, but I'm not trying to compare. I tend to lean on the prog side. Love "Your Dark Ideas" and "Swimming Horses" so far. IMO the first real killer prog album of 2016, sorry SW!
