Triosphere - The Road Less Travelled

Just got this recently myself. Such a great album! The singer/bassist is so damn good.

Agreed!
The first one was great but this album is a giant step up. Too bad almost no one cares...

Last additions for 2011...Bring on 2012!!

Barnburner - Bangers II: Scum of the Earth
Charred Walls of the Damned - Cold Wind on Timeless Days
Dead On - Dead On
Iced Earth - Dystopia (deluxe edition w/bonus tracks, poster & sticker)
Slash - Made in Stoke Live (deluxe ed. 2 cd / 1 dvd)

From FYE buy one get 50% off one sale.

Solitude Aeturnus - Into The Depths Of Sorrow (I believe it is a first press on RoadRacer)
Michael Monroe - Sensory Overdrive (why it took me so long to get this is a mystery. Also glad I didn't compile my top ten list before hearing it. Instantly on it.)
Venom - Metal Black
Casualties - Under Attack

Zero Hour- A Fragile Mind
Zero Hour- Specs Of Pictures Burnt Beyond
Zero Hour- Dark Deceiver

Finally picked these up. I have the other 2 or 3 coming as well. Lasers edge had them on sale so I figured if I got these might as well get the rest if they were cheap enough else where.

I know kmorg is a big fan. Others here as well. But yeah, a very unappreciated band. =(

Never heard of them outside of this board. What's the style? (please don't say "progmetal")

Fantastic albums, bro! Seriously killer band. My favorite is A Fragile Mind. Now you need the albums by Cynthesis and Death Machine.





Bizarre video. It's Zero Hour with like the fat dude from Mallrats on vocals. Haha. Oh, and if you can dig instrumental stuff, check out Troy and Jasun's latest project:



God, I love this stuff! If you can dig on that, also check out Canvas Solaris. No relation to Zero Hour, but it's instrumental bad-assedness like this here Abnormal Thought Patterns EP.

Oh, and I snagged these today:

Elevnking - Red Silent Tides (2CD)
Face To Face - Laugh Now...Laugh Later
John Popper & The Duskray Troubadours - John Popper & The Duskray Troubadours
Pain - You Only Live Twice
Rage - Unity (w/Bonus Track)
Stabbing Westward - Ungod
Voyager - The Meaning Of I
Zebrahead - Broadcast To The World

Bought the Rage disc for the bonus track, so if anyone is looking for a copy, I know have an extra.

Power metal, but leaning more toward traditional heavy metal, I'd say.

Diemonds - The Bad Pack
Witchfinder General - Live '83
Desolation Angels - Feels Like Thunder - 4 disc box set

Thanks for the link. Just not my thing at all. Although it's a little hard to really tell from 15 second snippets, the one thing I found annoying was the lead vocals.

Yea I just read about Cynthesis today. I have to check it out. The newer vocalist is good but I think I like their second vocalist better.

Funkadelic - Funkadelic
Funkadelic - Follow Your Mind... And Your Ass Will Follow
Funkadelic - Maggot Brain

Tower Of Power - Back To Oakland
Mother's Finest - Another Mother Further

Erik Rosvold or Fred Marshall? Eric seems to be the fan favorite, and he's the dude singing on the Cynthesis album. Fred only sings on A Fragile Mind. And then Chris Salinas, the Power of Omens vocalist, sang on the last two albums.

I guess there was another singer on their first demo, but no one has ever heard it. The band says it was a lame demo anyway. Haha.

I'm still confused about what's going on with them. Zero Hour is apparently either no more or on hiatus due to Troy and Jasun not being able to write together. This all due to Troy's nerve damage. Yet he's on the Cynthesis album and the Abnormal Thought Patterns EP...and it sure as hell doesn't sound like he's slowed down at all.

Kind of confusing, actually. Maybe I should ask the band.

Holy crap! I first read that as Voivod, and was SO confused!
