I have this on my ipod. Seems like I SERIOUSLY need to check this out! Thanks for the heads up Bar!

Yeah, you seriously do!

I recommend listening to this one a few times first, but then don't neglect Number Seven, because although some people disgaree with me, I think it's even better (as my score suggests).

Glad you came around reviewing Phideaux (I actually had it on my list). This site needs more prog!

I was going to review Snowtorch as well, but you can have it if you like.

(I considered reviewing the albums before Doomsday as well, but aside from Chupacabras they're not really prog, so I'm not sure how suitable they are for the site, being just rock really. What do you think?)

I think you should stick with the releases that can actually interest people here. Also, there's about 1.000 good prog bands we could write about from a "metal" angle and not enough time to do them all, why then review "just rock albums", maybe you can mention them in another Phideaux review...

And you can have Snowtorch, I have been a tad disappointed by it and, like I said, there's a lot of prog bands that need covering... I have a list.

Cool, I was a little disappointed by Snowtorch too.

I won't give it as high a rating as Doomsday or Number Seven.

Phideaux has been quite active lately on the Progarchives forums. It might interest you to know he has a new 4 piece band called Mogon and they already have 2 albums ready! They will be released soon. It is the same people he usually works with, but he is writing music on a smaller scale for his project. He said it was becoming a little overwhelming always writing music for a 10-piece band.

However, he is also finished recording Infernal, the sequel to Doomsday Afternoon, and has released the track listing. It's a double album!! He hopes to release it by December. I can't wait!
