For some reason I've never been big on Godspeed. Storm is up there on my list of epic songs though.

Oh yes, that's right. They're back on some like 10-12 date tour? I heard that from my mate, I think.

I saw them a while back in Madison, but I had to choose between the first DVD and the Holy ground package. But I will GET IT! I tried to entice them to the Dwarf side with a Robot Devil, but did not hear back from them.

To me they always seemed to have a lot of potential, but the songs never go anywhere. Also, I get sick of the "weird guy talking about stuff while the music builds" formula pretty fast.

Well they are called Mono....
I've never heard this band before, but I like what I'm hearing.

The "solo" @ 3:00 hurts sooooooooooooooo good.
