Index and pinky fingers extended (play)!

Yeah, spiral Architect are quite interresting. They're certianly an odd mixture. One minute I'm thinking of how the vocals sound just like Bruce Dickinson, then I'm thinking of how the guitar breaks into this odd Vai-like melodic solo while the odd electronics drone in the background. Of course, there's a lot of typical metal crunch also, but it's well tempered with said influences. They've claimed to be working on a second album, but I doubt it'll ever come out.
