Hello all,

This should be my first significant post for quite some time. I have recently (in the last year) been introduced to PT through a collegue. I didn't expect to like much of what I heard at first, as it fit the bill of being 'metal' or heavy rock. What it also is, however, is progressive.

Although the brains of the outfit doesn't like the tag, progressive is definately the feel i get from everything I've heard from them so far (The Sky Moves Sideways - brilliant, In Absentia - a piece of art, and Deadwing - just perfect)

In particular I like the longer, deeper tracks and the overtly popular-style tracks. That accounts for almost everything. Tracks like Blackest Eyes from In Absentia just has everything; amazing lyrics, a great hook, wonderful production...

My favourite of all though, has to be Arriving Somewhere, But Not Here from Deadwing (2005). Just a sheer masterpiece.

I urge all of those here with even a slight liking of metal music to give it a try - you'll probably like it... I did, and I was skeptical!  :D

Everyone's interpretation is different, and everyone has a right to that opinion. There is no "right" one, I am adding this post to communicate my thoughts to share them with like-minded souls who will be able to comment in good nature.

As the cheerless towns pass my window
I can see a washed out moon through the fog
And then a voice inside my head breaks the analogue
And says

"Follow me down to the valley below
You know
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul"

I survived against the will of my twisted folk
But in the deafness of my world the silence broke
And said

"Follow me down to the valley below
You know Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul"

"My David don't you worry
This cold world is not for you
So rest your head upon me
I have strength to carry you"

(Ghosts of the twenties rising Golden summers just holding you)

"Follow me down to the valley below
You know
Moonlight is bleeding from out of your soul
Come to us Lazarus
It's time for you to go"


Dosen't get better than this ;)
