Never heard of "Omega Point" and "Dead Calm". Are they any good?

Omega Point was uploaded on Poisonoise a few months ago...Both are very good bands.

You mean the link is deleted? I'll reupload if it has expired.

I already found it

Can't believe that I missed that one, I think I wasn't down at mother earth at the time. I'm listening to it right now and it's indeed that particular sound with an obvious Fates Warning touch, shit, this really rules!! Thanks for the reminder !

Has anyone heard the band Lion? I was watching the original Transformers movie and I thought their cover of the theme song was pretty cool, and sounded sort of Ryche-y. What's their original material like?

I don't know this particular song but the rest is very good Melodic Metal with the great Kal Swan on vocals. Before this he recorded a LP and a Maxi with TYTAN (UK) which where better than LION and after LION he also made about 3 CD's with BAD MOON RISING, but they where not as good.
Also in the Band : Doug ALdrotch and Mark Edwards

I wanted to bump this thread because I've been listening to quite a bit of this kind of music lately (in particular the aforementioned Screamer LP). I'll add 2 more bands that haven't been mentioned yet: Hitt Man and Luv Hunter (the latter is a bit more comparable to early Fates Warning, but still recommended for fans of this style).

HELD UNDER / DISCOVERY are also part of the Seattle's melodic power/prog madness from the 80s

Been playing Heir Apparent today

Does anyone have the second Mercury Rising album? I think it's called 'building rome' or something like that. I only have 1 song from it; a friend of mine has been looking for it for awhile.
