Are you a street-teamer?

Just kiddin, but all I know about PRR is they had an army of street-tramers attack this board when their EP came out, and they were the worst support band I've ever seen in all my gig-going life.

Don't mind In Aurelia though, okayish tune. Anything else worth checking out?

the album is a blandathon

if you like the live show (despite the pretensious miming and nothing but backing tracks) get the ep which in my opinion is actually pretty good! the album just seems to take those songs and put 10 minutes of nothing between each one

I've got it

It is very good indeed, although i've only heard the first 4 tracks so far.

PRR big in Cyprus?

Did they support Hope of the States a year or two ago? Think that was them, but they can't have been that memorable as I can't be sure.

Anyway...I was more than a bit surprised to hear them played on Cypriot radio last night. Buried amongst cheesy Greek pop like a nugget of prog-tastic gold they were.

ok

Having listened to it a few times, it's certainly one of the better albums of the year. I've a feeling I might get sick of it very quickly though
