Threshold

After hearing rave reviews of these guys on both Ultmetal and Kmorg's sites and hearing Slipstream on a Nuclear Blast compilation (came with Into The Light: Twenty Years Nuclear Blast), I decided to pick up something by them. At Best Buy they only had one album so I got it. Imagine my (pleasant) suprise when I got it home and realized it was a best of disc (I didn't look to closely at the cover when I purchased it) which is usually how I like to get introduced to a band. Slipstream is still as good as when I first heard it and the rest of the songs are just as mind-blowingly good. Being a fan of Prog metal, I can't believe I passed these guys up for so long because they are right up there with Dream Theater, Ayreon, Evergrey, and Shadow Gallery. I will have to go through these guy's catalog and I will also keep a close eye on them. Any suggestions would be most welcome.

I pretty much love all of the bands albums. But maybe your should work your way backwards, starting with the bands latest effort.

Yes work backwards you can not go wrong with any Threshold material, great band!

If you like Threshold check out Magnitude 9 same vien!

I like the 2 most recent Threshold albums the best and my fav of all them is Subsurface. Great band, great vocals and very interesting music...

Great band. I have all the albums, and I would personally recommend you start with Hypothetical.

I have Dead Reckoning and like quite a bit of it. I also have Hypothetical and don't like it. This band is a little to proggy for my tastes.

I'm hoping Damien Wilson does their next album with them. Very cool that he stepped up when they needed a singer. I love his voice!

Great band, though. I wish this greatest hits package had something worthwhile on it for long-time fans. Edited tracks may be exclusive to the release, but they're also frickin' incomplete! How that's a selling point? Haha.

I would start with Extinct Instinct but it's all good. I have to be in the mood for something this proggy but they scratch that itch.

Great band that seems to slip under far too many radars. I didnt discover them until Hypothetical came out, great album by the way.

I dont find them to be overly progressive though, there song writing is a lot more straight forward than say Dream Theatre. Start with the last album and work backwards although some take a few listens before they get their hooks into you, but trust me its worth the effort.

I have Extinct Instinct, and I liked it, but not enough to keep up with their catalogue I guess. Hearing that they've only improved since makes me want to check back in with them.

ive only Splitstream i was pretty impressed id like to hear more
