We are sorry if some of our more distant fans dont know about our daily happenings....we are somewhat of a private group of people.

That being said, we have begun recording our first full length album. it will contain 9-11 cuts, and some of those possibly being cut up in individually into extra tracks.

So far here are working titles for songs, with * next to the finished titles with a little description of each.

The working Album Title is "Current"

1. *Oraclii: This will be our instrumental opener, it will be very ambient and probably clock in at less than three minutes.

2. *Visions:  This song has been played at every single show since it was finished over a year ago, it represents one of the proggier tunes.  Dream Theater meets Fear Factory with a little bit of Pink Floyd thrown in.

3. *The Flood:  This has also been a staple at most of our live shows, it is heavier and one of the most dynamic tunes on the album.  Very Opeth/Emperor influenced.

4.  *The Phillidelphia Experiment:  This is a concept piece about the title, it has been a hit for the last six months at shows.  It is also highly progressive and represents some of the current directions the band is exploring. This track has the feel of all things Arret Zone, from heavy to light.  Its "flavors" are Opeth, DT, and Symphony X. It also has some polyrhytmic action in it a la Meshuggah.

5.  "This is the Night"  -  This is a modern ballad plain and simple, starts out small and builds till the end.  The theme of it is Betrayal, gives the guitarists a chance to showboat and solo.

6.  "This is Sparta" - This is an excercise in Heavy, utilizing many different time signatures.  It is an invention on one note.

7.  *Through Hell's Unknown: this song was written mostly in one night and has an epic/power metal feel. It is quite straight forward for us.

8  "The Prince is Down"  - This is another more straightforward tune, with catchy melodies and lyrics.  It also stems from our Power/Epic metal side.

9.  "Some Days it Feels Like I'm Herding Cats"  - This tune has the possibilty of being the "big" tune on the album, it will most likely clock in at arround 15 minutes when finished. We have no intention of shortening it.  It has some of our most acrobatic playing to date in it, and has no lyrics at this point.

10. *Forest  - This tone will have more of a funk/pink floyd/Opeth feel to it, if it makes the cut.  It is still in the birthing stages.

11.  "Instrumental/Cover/Interpetation"  If there is time and space we will add a song to the album, if it is instrumental it will probably invovle a lot of scrap riffs we couldnt make fit elsewhere, which we will have to come back and make fit here.

This album will be finished recording by August 10th, and a demo copy of a few of the songs will be available at the Kansas City Power Metal Festival.

We hope you are as excited as we are.


Oh, and with a new album, the Website will get a new facelift.
