Not sure how many people here are fans of this band, but I got their first album when it came out and really enjoyed it. Never was able to find the second album at a good price, but I'm listening to this third one now and it's pretty good. Definitely more prog-oriented than their debut, but they always seemed to be a prog band at heart. Only about halfway through so far, and this is a monster album, so it will take a lot of listens to sink in, but it's pretty bearable for prog (a style which I don't like that much).

I can't really give any easy comparisons because I don't listen to a lot of this stuff, but Mindmaze has some major Savatage-isms in their music at points.

Also, the band is embarking on a North America tour supporting Arkona and Sirenia! I've been waiting since 2013 to see them, so definitely looking forward to this! Tour dates here: https://www.facebook.com/mindmazeband/?fref=ts

Great band. Yeah, they're somewhat difficult to categorize, but I would just call it power/prog. I thought Back from the Edge was a step up from the debut, so I've got high expectations for this one.

I just added this band (and a few allegedly-similar bands) to my list of stuff to listen to soon, so it's pretty lucky a new album's coming out if I turn out to really like them. And if that new song is any indication, that shouldn't be too hard.
