I think this band is much better that DT...I think DT sounds a lil overproduced and controlled. I like the raw, experimental, risky feel to this grouping of musicians.
Finally!, the third OSI album is coming. It has Release Dates: Europe 27.4.2009 / North America 2009.5.19. It is to be titled Blood (source Inside Out site).The tracklist for Blood: 01. The Escape Artist 02. Terminal 03. False Start 04. We Come Undone 05. Radiologue 06. Be The Hero 07. Microburst Alert 08. Stockholm 09. Blood Good, isn't it?
"I've been working with Jim on our third OSI album for several months now, slowly but surely. Gavin Harrison (Porcupine Tree) is playing drums on this one - he's nearly done tracking and it sounds great. Along with guitar, Jim is handling bass this time. I still get to sing but may get some help (more later)."
Kevin's Chroma Key is one of the most refreshing forms of music today. All of the albums just take you on a journey you know? OSI is Kevin coming back to prog with his Chroma Key sound still intact. His voice just seems to take the stress out of my worst days for me. Plus its completly original. I mean c'mon. at 1:20 they break out the f'n banjo! Brilliant
OSI are amazing...I've been a Matheos fan since the first Fates...Dream Theater as well...Thank you Jim for all of these years of amazing music and also for being so gratious in person...I had the pleasure of hanging out a couple of times...Cheers!
Very well done. Some of the cuts were a little too quick for my liking. I would have liked to see some of the shots for longer, especially since it's a slow song, but mainly 'cos you had some really good shots. Only a minor criticism.
Because I'm so moved by your video, I posted it on the Mike Portnoy forum. I'm not shure he will ever come here to watch it, but i most definitely hope so.
Don't worry I'm going to try and link this on the forum of Mike Portnoy. He hopefully will share it with the band. This MUST be seen by the band and the wi(l)de world.
thankx for giving us this video, is (i've said it before) amazingly done!!
This is wonderfully done. I think you don't have to be afraid, sooner or later OSI will pick this one up. Perfect work, and yeah, OSI is one of the most complete bands ever to exist. Too bad that not even 10% of the population will ever hear this thanx to our great radiostations (f**kers!!!).
But to end this nagging, wonderful and beautiful clip you made.
@IDGeneratorS I think DT from now will live in the shadows of Portnoy.
