Prophet? Is this more Mormon stuff? oh wait its crossed out...

Gotta admit, I have no clue who this and its never hit my radar on any site I use. But a quick search reveals the Kings X/Winger connection, two bands I cant seem to come around to liking much. But I do like Dream Theater! Unfortunately there's not much to like about the first two tracks, the bass lines aren't even very interesting. However, Mr Man (and I'm not talking to Jon when I typed that) this song is pretty cool!

Not much prog on here for a prog super trio!

Ghost Town is a droner but I did like the guitar work that begins at the two minute mark! Very melodic for a prog super trio! IT finished better than it started, I'll give it the benefit of the doubt, were at 2 good and 2 not so much.... tie breaker on deck.

Again it finished much better than it started but it wasn't enough, 2 good 3 not so much.... I'd say nice find, but I think this was a no-brainer for Kings X fans. Of which I am not...
