Great to hear they didn't bite the dust... I thought that the Mezmerise / Hypnotise twins showed a great deal of accomplishment and promise for the future all in one. Their music may not be all that new original, but for my mind it certainly stands out (and head and shoulders above) a good deal of the hard rock out there at the moment... There's no cloying "yeah I am tough, look at my tatts but listen to my heard bared out in my songs" type mentality to their music - there's a strong political focus and they have unique angles, encompassing other culture's musical styles.

A band with alot going for it - and I am very pleased to hear they aren't done yet. Good news.
