whole Ayreon concept is quite boring to me, I'm totally indifferent to that... I just need to know what's the name of the song in which Jonas Renkse sings?




I can sense it comes near the storm of shit against to me... :lol:

Binary 01011001 seems to convert to decimal 89. What significance does that have?

And in what way is that more significant than 89, then? ;)

"01011001" is the binary form of the number 89, which is the ASCII code for the letter 'Y'.
01011001's plot is tied to the "Planet Y" and "Forever of the Stars" storyline developed in
the albums Into the Electric Castle, The Universal Migrator and The Human Equation.

Ah, now we're getting somewhere ;)

Not the most catchy album title ever, though.

Anneke sings in Comatose with Jorn Land and Jonas Renkse also in Waking Dreams with Katatonia's singer. :P

I liked it. Some of it sounds a bit cheesy to the point of being unlistenable but as a seasoned progressive fan, I've come to expect that. And while it's not quite as good as The Human Equation it still has enough diversity and well written sections for me to say it's above average. I was also excited to hear that Jonas Renske would be on the album (as if recruiting Johan Edlund for Dream Sequencer wasn't odd enough). I think he did a wonderful job (as did Anneke. then again, as a TG fan that doesn't come as a surprise). Good album, overall.
