Threshold the Band

The UK prog metal outfit Threshold are not a new band but it has taken me until now to discover them. Though the lyrical content can sometimes be a little preachy featuring on topics such as globalisation ETC they sound like a heavier version of Images and Words Dream Theater with lush vocals and more hooks than a hooky thing. I’ve just invested in some of the back catalogue and am really impressed. Anyhow, check out the linked page above for some samples and a full track from the new cd on the front page. Smashing stuff for metal fans and the more melodic centric rock fan. They are also the only UK prog metal band as far as I know.
