Yeah but . . .

You know, I had this idea, that if I had a Metal Band (Math Metal or Prog Metal), "we'd" write "1 Pop song" and that would "bring in a revenue" and exposure, but the rest of our material would be aggressive complex "Metal".  I'm sure this has happened before (The Band Filter comes to mind).

But the thing is with PoS, we know their history of Music, this is a way to expose the "heart" of the band that is more aggressive, but they are a band that never shyed away from ballad-like songs, usually they'd get a bit aggressive or "musical" within it.  I'm actually on the mailing list of Eurovision as well, have you "seen" and heard the other bands, all the damned cliche's about "Euro Groups" musically and the way they dress! Like an East German Block/Soviet 1980's Band! What decade is it again?

As far as the new stuff, I have not heard the "Album" Road Salt, I heard the EP on my fave Internet Station and its like Queensryche becoming a "Grunge" Band (Post-"Promised Land), and I hope they dont end up like QR . . . Losing the brightness, musicality and power they once had.  I was VERY dissapointed with what I've heard on (PoS) the EP.
I hope the Album will be "different", but the power of PoS.
