Ayreon (Arjen Lucassen)

Has anyone else checked this stuff out?

Ayreon is much like The Alan Parsons Project. Arjen Lucassen, in this case, is the Alan Parsons. He writes these fantastic rock operas, and often recruits people from other bands to form the right formula for his latest work. I only discovered them a while ago, when I picked up his/their '04 release "The Human Equation." Loving that, I asked for and got another CD, "The Universal Migrator." Very proggy with occassional metal/hard rock tendancies, but not extremely unaccessable. Most of his earlier works are based on somewhat cheesy sci-fi storylines, but the music is wonderful. If you like good music, give this group a try.

He also has a few other projects: Ambeon (ambient techno), Space One (heavy metal), and Bodine (I have no idea).

No one seems to have any interest in this great Dutch artist.

Yes...he truly is a modern day genius. People also overlooked my Devin Townsend thread; he is really wonderful as well.

C'mon guys, it's good for you!
