While we wait for their new album in 2023 (hopefully), they finally released Orbits for online streaming! Plenty of uncovered gems there!

I just can't believe that nobody mentions 'Perfect Forever' which is by far the best Anubis Gate album on my opinion. It has the perfect amount of heavy, progressive and melodic parts, well constructed and lyrically deep with unique feeling and atmosphere. Torben Askholm might not be the best singer, but he delivers it excellent on this album. Later albums are good, but I found them too 'polished' and a lot of songs kind of generic, senseless. Yet, a couple of tracks are masterpieces, like Pyramids from The Detached and Hold Back Tomorrow and Desiderio Omnibus from Anubis Gate album.

A couple tracks on "Horizons" centered around the theme of "Dreams", which was sort of neat, but I would love to see them try a full-on concept album again sometime. :-)

"Horizons" took awhile, but it really grows with time. The self titled was great too, but "Andromeda Unchained" & "The Detached" are just simply on another level. Perhaps Hansen's vocals were slightly better, but I don't think it really had much to do with the singer change. Personally, I think what separates those 2 albums from the others is that they were full on sci-fi concept albums, with immersive & well thought out story-lines. The Spacey/Sci-Fi themes fit the band's style of modern progressive metal like a glove, with their subtle use of electronic effects having more of a purpose. The music on the last 2 albums with Ferve on vocals is technically just as good, but they don't even come close to matching the immersive atmosphere of the Hansen albums.

It's so interesting how varied everyone's opinions on the band's best works are. I loved Andromeda, adored the self-titled, but for me Horizons is far and above one of the greatest albums ever made! Can't wait to see them in Atlanta this year for ProgPower.

I agree, both "Andromeda Unchained" and "The Detached" are my fave albums too. Outstanding vocals by Hansen.

I'm listening to the new album right now and it just isn't doing it for me like their previous releases have. At this point my favorite album so far this year is Lacuna Coil's Broken Crown Halo.

Horizons looks like it's on track to being one of the most under-appreciated albums of 2014! Really powerful stuff.

Horizons is a solid step up from the s/t. I was hesitant about it for a while, but it turned out pleasantly.

New album "Horizons" sounds promising on teaser. Andromeda Unchained will remain forever unbeatable, though.

One of my favorite modern prog metal bands. Just awesome. Heavy, dynamic, atmospheric, melodic, powerful. Henrik did a good job on vocals on the latest release, but I do really miss Jacob's vocals. He was just fantastic.
