Right, of course, I see. Even so though, that shouldn't really be the case should it? I mean, if three black metal guys form an AOR band (can't you just imagine it?

) should this new band be regarded black metal? Seems a little silly. I agree Wetton has the prog connections, but I think he left those mostly well behind when he hooked up with Howe, Downes and Palmer.
You should deffo check out that Fergie album: I thought it was amazing, and having low expectations which were so kicked in the face by the album I really felt it deserved the seldom-awarded five Cookies. Ant also introduced me to Work of Art, who may be getting a similar rating, review due soon.
