Remarkably Human
by Nick Johnston
Beautiful instrumental rock, driven by Nick's incredible and tasteful guitar playing. The music truly lets the technique serve the compositions, something missing from much modern guitar-based music.

The Dance of Light & Shade
by Soul Doubt
supported by 9 fans who also own “Anomaly”
If someone were to ask me why I love progressive rock, this album would be one of my examples. It's eclectic; it's beautiful; it's sufficiently complex; and its cover art is cool. Soul Doubt does one hell of a great job of reprising the album's themes and building atmosphere and emotion throughout the >100 minute affair. And the cherry on top of it all is that there are no middling or superfluous songs--which is impressive because double albums usually have some amount of filler. Magnifico!
