Devon Graves is back again with his progressive metal outfit Deadsoul Tribe. The former vocalist of Psychotic Waltz, back then going under the name of Buddy Lackey, brings out the third album, "The January Tree", and proving that with time he gets only better and better? like a wine.

Low bass? with drums joining a moment later and heavy and angry guitars coming in another moment later. So starts the first track of the album "Spiders and Flies", a very worthy beginning. Listening to it you can quite easily get the impression what is Deadsoul Tribe and what music it makes. If I mention word prog, most of the people will think of virtuoso sound of Dream Theater, other's out of personal classification will think of Opeth? and quite many people will simply say "not again this overplayed genre".

A Murder of Crows was his best, followed by tJT...

but then I've never been tempted to hit the stop button during one of his albums...

First gig was Manowar (loincloths 'n' all), Bristol Colston Hall in March 1983, on the 'Hail to England' tour. Tickets were £3.75, 300 in the audience, Mercyful Fate never showed, but my hearing still got seriously trashed..

yes, I'd say so, and the good people of metal storm seem to agree (albeit slightly)... I think it's just a slightly more even album, no low points and it was where in my humble opinion, he straddled that post/prog metal divide most successfully..
