Anyone familiar with this progressive metal band?

I'm listening to their 2nd album, Reconceive, right now and I forgot how much I liked it. The lead singer (RIP) has a little bit of a James Hetfiled-vibe to his voice. It's been awhile since I've heard this one. According to BNR Metal.com, they only released 2 albums. I never heard the 1st one. Apparently they had a different lead singer on Introspect. Any thoughts on that release? Is it worth picking up? How does it compare to Reconceive?

Think I have some thoughts on both discs on NLTM. Haven't listened to either of them in a long time. Will have to pull them out again, since you reminded me.

I had their first disc and thought it was boring IIRC.

Yea, I checked out your page (as usual). Your review of the 1st disc, while positive, was a kinda brief. I'm wondering how it compares to the 2nd disc. There's a few copies floating around on ebay pretty cheap, so I might pick it up anyway.

I hadn't listened to Reconceive in a long time either. I was putting away my copy of Queensryche's American Soldier when I saw it there in the "Q" section so I thought I'd bring it into work this week. Brought in Quiet Riot's Rehab as well. Don't have many groups that start with Q. The Quiet Room Icon_smile

I have both albums and really like each. I'm at work right now so I can't check, but I know the two singers are very different. One sings cleanly; the other has a more gruff style. Not death metal style, just "scratchier."

I can't remember off hand which album that guy sings on, though. Great band. Really lame artwork. Haha.

Reconceive, the second album has a singer that is a little raspy. Ggruffer style, akin to James Hetfield at times.
