wow a five person review. you're right, they know good prog when they hear it! yeah good releases usually only get 3 person reviews hey ...... yay! go glasshammer.

i'll have to read it later maybe dinner break or something. thanks for the head's up, i usually only look at DPRP once a month or something.
hope all is well with everyone here!
There's an interview and a contest too.

yeah i read the interview last night thanks for that steve. with 3/5 reviews giving you guys a 9/10 you must be pretty chuffed! have you sold an absolute stack yet??
i liked the start of geoff's review particularly...
"Following Neal Morse’s departure from Spock’s Beard in 2002, Glass Hammer in my opinion inherited the mantle as the USA’s premier progressive rock band (and no I haven’t forgotten about Dream Theater). With each release GH have raised the bar reaching a peak of sorts with last year’s magnificent IF"
what an honour

If left is wrong I don't wanna be right...

The Compilations is an awesome album! Probably one of my favorite GH records.
Luke 6:27-31
27 "But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. 29 If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. 30 Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. 31 Do to others as you would have them do to you.

I FINALLY got around to buy it. (I have been off in jazz land for a while.) I have only listened to it once, and I must confess that is a great prog album. Glass Hammer now seems more like a band than before, and I really like it. Kudos to Glass Hammer for the great music. Peace and goodwill.
