    Thanks for positing the interview. The album sounds quite interesting.
    What can this strange device be? When I touch it, it brings forth a sound (2112)

    Funny, before Fred even mentioned Rush being an influence on this CD, I was getting a Rush vibe from the audio clips.

    Looking forward to this one. Gonna be hard to top Chronomonaut for me, but who knows? Either way, I'm excited.

    I'll be pre-ordering as always when the time comes. I need my Glass Hammer Post-it note!

    Might be a long shot, but is there any chance of reissuing The Middle Earth Album and/or the One release? Those are the only two I'm missing, and I don't want to shell out mass dollars for them on E-bay or Discogs.

    So is this concept album going to be a musical rendition of Moorcock's The Dreaming City, which introduced Elric of Melnibone, or a new storyline that just happens to have a similar name?

    Oh, and don't try to get Geddy involved, guys. His voice isn't there anymore. (Yeah, I get it that that was just musing.)

    Dreaming City is inspired by the works of Moorcock, Robert E. Howard and other sword and sorcery authors. But the story is original and the city is nothing like Moorcock's Melnibone. I did want to write about an anti-hero and his sword....but neither will be like Elric / Stormbringer.
    Dreaming City wasn't going to be the title, but it is the name of the first track on the album. Fred thought it would make a good album title so we went with it.
    I don't know how to reach out to Geddy...so probably no chance of that happening!

    Very cool! I'm looking forward to this.

    Maybe I've missed it if it's already been said, and apologies if I have, but when do the pre-orders start?
