Nice!! this band is excellent!!

This whole cd is excellent. I find myself spinning it a lot.

And yes, the cover is quite well done.

More of you should check it out.

That cover of Red Sector A is lame! The only thing adding "chugga chugga" metal riffs does is detract from the killer melody of the song.

Surprisingly, I don't hate the cover. Red Sector A is one of my favorite Rush tunes, and it lends itself well to a metal version.

Fixed it for ya'.

I don't have a problem with "metal-izing" Red Sector A, but this particular attempt was incredibly uninspired. They took the easiest possible route to making this one "metal", it sounds like they jammed on it for 30 minutes and then hit record. As soon as I heard the way they arranged the riff and added the metronome-double bass I was like..ugh...that's way too easy. Paint by numbers metal arranging.

If a better band tackled this is could be cool, but this wasn't the right band.

Aww. I just thought they wanted to show respect. No way they can better that song, they're not that kind of band.
