Eric Blackwell If you haven't listened to Haken before, I would highly recommend them if you're a Dream Theater fan. The Mountain is one of my favorite albums.
KyleJPie10 haha its one of my favorites too. haken is awesome! well I appreciate it tho. im going to leave you with one last one the band Peresfone album: spirtaul migration enjoy dude keep rockin!
I can't believe I've never heard Neal Morse...i've been a dream theater fan since 1991 and I am a Christian and have always wanted this style of music with these kind of lyrics....I'm blown away right now myself being a musician.....instantly hooked!!
Also look for the band he helped form; "Spock's Beard" :). He was with them (along with his guitarist/brother) till the album "Snow" (the last 3 albums lead vocalist is Ted Leonard, yet another amazing vocalist who is also from the Heavy Prog Rock band "Enchant"). Also checkout Neal in "Transatlantic" and "Flying Colors", both with Portnoy on Drums :). If you go to Neal, Portnoy and Leonard's wiki pages, you'll find all the bands they have played with - the "Family Tree" could be as long reaching as Deep Purple :D.
I thought i was halucinating listening to this. How could i never have heard of Neal Morse band? This is the coolest stuff ive ever heard! And its Christian!? Unbelievable!
Neal Morse and the various projects are so much more significant that any musician I can think of. The totality and the quality are just not matched. He seems to have only gotten better as his years have gone on. The sheer amount of it is so HUGE. Its a shame that so many will pass on him because that can't stand the idea of hearing about the LORD that loves them and saves them in times of trouble. Let it not be so anymore. Jesus LOVES you. "all those that call on the name of the LORD shall be saved".
You called me forth amid the waves And wayward waters That kind of trust I've never found I always wind up sinking down Was I really dead And at the bottom of the ocean? Stay the course I heard you say But all I saw was the long way down Now I feel like I'm alive again Spread my arms upon the open wind Yeah, I feel like I'm alive again Crashing waves like breath upon my skin The wounded warrior Has no temporary shelter Chasing down an enemy That always lurked inside of me Finally he killed What he had come to think was his quarry The man whose heart was like the sea Was gone and he would never be found Now I feel like I'm alive again Spread my arms upon the open wind Yeah, I feel like I'm alive again Never looking back to where I've been I can see the light Burning in my soul I can see the light I know that I must go The king of surprise In the boredom queen Went out to dine at the bottom line Drinking blood red wine The jack of all trades And the master of none Set out to get back at most everyone It's not too late to get free There's something more you used to see Get back to where you used to be Fly away Lost in the place I'm dreaming I wanna hideaway Gone forever Flyaway Far from the silent screaming I wanna hideaway Gone forever Daughters of angst and wretched rage Pulled a sword from the stone Like Al Capone As the king of pain goes insane Where the Pope of Rome Meets the pope at home And the nicotine stain goes unexplained Fly away Lost in the place I'm dreaming I wanna hideaway Where I can't remember Flyaway Far from the silent screaming I'm gonna hideaway Gone forever Locks on a box Holding inside Face in a mirror Seems to disguise The boy at the door Who I was before Is more than I'll ever be The sun kissed the day I was well on my way I'd love to just love you But I've no time today The man that I saw Who could stand on the sea Was more than I'd ever be Sometimes In the dark night of my soul In the corner of my life I see the man inside Morning again The sun shining in The boy from the sad side No chance to win Has walked through the door To something much more More than I'd ever be Sometimes In the dark night of my soul From the corner of my life I see the man inside Now I find He is making my dreams alive In the brightness of my day I can see the man inside The wounded warrior With no temporary shelter Had lost the will to stand and fight To the enemy that lives inside Now he's on the run Because the King of angel armies Has come to bring the dead to life And quench the darkness with the light Now I feel like I'm alive again Spread my arms upon the open wind Yeah, I feel like I'm alive again Never looking back to where I've been I can see the light Burning in my soul I can see the light I know that I must go
Una gran pieza musical. Sublime. Neal Morse, un gran, gran, gran músico. El rock progresivo sigue dando grandes bandas. Siempre escuché a Génesis, Yes, Jhetro Tull, ELP, Camel, Marillion. Neal... no hay nada que envidiar....Abrazo desde Argentina!!!
The new guy at Keys has a beautiful voice!! remind me a little bit to Peter Gabriel. Great interpretation at 17:00! The Guitar Player has a great voice too, a lot of high end , very pleasant tone. This song is awesome! God bless Neal and his followers!
The last 3 minutes always gives me goosebumps. The way it returns to the opening melody, only slower and more confident, is a wonderful representation of the journey I've just been on.
This has become my favorite song on this album. I can't get enough of it! I've been listening to it every morning on my way to work- perfect since getting to work takes approximately 23 minutes. Thank you to this awesome band for making my mornings a little brighter!
This is their pinnacle in my opinion. Everything is in this song. So much better than a half hour of television. I could go on and on. Then I’d be labeled a progger. And yes I am.
From the start I can tell I'll love this as a co-worker turned me onto We Came From Space when their latest album dropped in February and I've been loving their stuff!
(Translate to Spanish) Me llamaste en medio de las olas Y aguas rebeldes Ese tipo de confianza que nunca he encontrado Siempre termino hundiéndome ¿Estaba realmente muerto? ¿En el fondo del océano? Mantén el rumbo, te escuché decir Pero todo lo que vi fue el largo camino ... Ahora siento que estoy vivo otra vez Extiende mis brazos sobre el viento abierto Sí, siento que estoy vivo otra vez. Rompiendo olas como aliento sobre mi piel Relacionado El guerrero herido No tiene refugio temporal Derribando a un enemigo Eso siempre acechaba dentro de mí Finalmente mato Lo que había llegado a pensar en su cantera El hombre cuyo corazón era como el mar. Wass se fue y nunca lo encontrarían Ahora siento que estoy vivo otra vez Extiende mis brazos sobre el viento abierto Sí, siento que estoy vivo otra vez. Nunca mirando hacia donde he estado, puedo ver la luz Ardiendo en mi alma Puedo ver la luz Sé que debo irme El rey de la sorpresa En la reina del aburrimiento Salió a cenar en el fondo Beber vino tinto sangre El gato de todos los oficios Y el maestro de ninguno Prepárate para volver a casi todos No es demasiado tarde para liberarse Hay algo más que solías ver Regresa a donde solías estar Perdido en el lugar que estoy soñando Quiero esconderme Se fue para siempre Alejarse Lejos de los gritos silenciosos Quiero esconderme Se fue para siempre Hijas de la angustia y la rabia miserable Sacó una espada de la piedra Como Al Capone Como el rey del dolor se vuelve loco Donde el papa de roma Se encuentra con el papa en casa Y la mancha de nicotina desaparece inexplicablemente Perdido en el lugar que estoy soñando Quiero esconderme Donde no puedo recordar Alejarse Lejos de los gritos silenciosos Quiero esconderme Ido para siempre, se bloquea en una caja Sosteniendo dentro Cara en un espejo Parece disfrazarse El chico de la puerta Quien era antes Es más de lo que nunca seré El sol besó el día Estaba en camino Me encantaría amarte Pero no tengo tiempo hoy El hombre que vi ¿Quién podría pararse en el mar? Era más de lo que alguna vez sería En la oscuridad de mi alma En la esquina de mi vida Veo al hombre dentro de la mañana otra vez El sol brillando en El chico del lado triste No hay posibilidad de ganar Ha atravesado la puerta A algo mucho mas Más de lo que alguna vez sería En la oscuridad de mi alma En la esquina de mi vida Veo al hombre adentro Ahora encuentro El esta haciendo mis sueños vivos En el brillo de mi dia Puedo ver al hombre adentro, el guerrero herido Sin refugio temporal Había perdido la voluntad de pararse y luchar Para el enemigo que vive dentro Ahora está huyendo Porque el rey de los ejércitos de ángeles Ha venido a traer a los muertos a vivir Y apaga la oscuridad con luz Ahora siento que estoy vivo otra vez Extiende mis brazos sobre el viento abierto Sí, siento que estoy vivo otra vez. Nunca volviendo a donde he estado, puedo ver la luz Ardiendo en mi alma Puedo ver la luz Sé que debo irme
For some reason, pop, rap, and dub step are the most listened to and respected music cultures. I think prog is certainly the most interesting, and the most complicated. It's my favourite by far, anyway. Prog isn't a very popular music culture, (even though it's the best,) so I'm just surprised to see so many views and comments considering how recently it was released.
Jonathan Taylor I caught myself thinking the same, but let the prog not very popular, I don't want to see this beautiful kind of music become a new wave of coolness :)
Eikinel Why do you say that? What if prog did become popular and we saw a whole generation of thousands of suddenly inspired people creating amazing and unique music?
It was more popular in the 70's in the Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Genesis, Yes, Rush era. It was passing at the radio but now it's more a underground genre, sad but we need some new bands to bring this back
Most moments would fit perfectly with parts of Momentum and Sola Scriptura. Just imagining the three playing at the same time in harmony causes me eargasms.
If Pink Floyd released this under their name with Gilmour singing the lead vocals it would go gold easily, it just shows how a good reputation can make your music heard.
love it!! One of Neal's best epics! the heavy parts are my favourite and also at 17min to 21min with Bill's vocals this part reminds me of classic Alan Parsons
there is a design flaw on this machine... the 2 large gears with the small one in the middle will never turn ! :-) Excellent song and excellent album btw !
Thanks. Yes I have the album, I'm about 20 listens in and it just keeps getting better! Probably Neal's best work since Snow. Going to see the Neal Morse band Jan 17th, and I can't wait! Hope they are touring somewhere near you. thanks again. Cheers
Another eipc from Neil. By far best song of the album, could have been Transatlantic song as well. The instrumental section starting around 13:35 minutes is fantasic. Effenaar Eindhoven 18 July : here we come !
23:28 - first part of that big note always makes me cringe slightly. But do love the vocal part starting at 17:00. Does anyone know who's singing this bit? Randy?
why Mike Portnoy doesn´t do a new progressive rock band to play his dream theater´s songs classics and brand new songs? why he resigned to the genre that made him who he is? .... i´ll miss a lot his progressive metal side!!!!! please mike ....i feel that is still sad for his departure for DT. reborn like a phoenix!!! just my opinion..sorry for my english... greetings from Mérida, Yucatán, the Maya Land
A very promising song exploring many of the aspects of progressive rock. However, the singing at parts is slightly too Bruno Mars but that may or may not make this song and the general category more accessible to a wider, 2010-audience. I would have also added some more high notes in order to fully fill up the soundscape because I felt that this song, while almost there, was still lacking something to be a masterpiece of the likes of 'Close to the Edge' by Yes. All in all, at parts a reminiscent of the late 70's can be heard, the influence of many progressive rock epochs and the likes of Dream Theater. Alive Again is a good shot at the beyond of rock, but it shows that development is still needed.
