    I can't say I'm an enthusiast but I never leave home without my watch...these days people don't bother because they have their cell phone for time...I'm one of the rare people who doesn't have a cell phone as I can't stand the damn things.....my watch is a Citizen Ecodrive that I love as I do not have to change the battery every 12 months....

    Citizen is a name that comes up a lot and is regarded as a respectable brand that offers great value at a reasonable price. Will need to look into the name a little further thanks 

  2. Any watch enthusiasts in the Heavy Harmonies community? I recently started getting into horology, reading about it and watching videos on Youtube. Very fascinating subject, I don't own many pieces (yet), except for the occasional quartz watch I had as a kid or would receive as a gift but not really been a ''watch guy'' per se.

    The only automatic / mechanical I own is a one-handed 24hr watch from a Swiss brand called Slow which I got two years ago. Reading about Seiko and their history and different models got my interest piqued again so I bought my younger brother an SKX009 which I will give to him as a gift when he passes his drivers test in a couple months.

    I stumbled across this one a few days ago which looks really interesting and I've been thinking about maybe getting, the Seiko Alpinist (don't know how to post pictures, somehow didn't work with the URL but I think it looks nice with a steel bracelet).

    What about you guys, any watch collectors who'd like to share their knowledge or opinion?

    Tempt has a lot going on right now.... they are gaining momentum and are poised to end the year strong. The just opened for Bon Jovi at Madison Square Garden and have a bunch of good stuff on the way.

    Really hoping they can release a follow up to their promising debut very soon, ideally this year

    Hey Simo, yeah I'm looking for an actual cd.  I saw on their website that they don't have any available and I haven't been able to find one anywhere else.  Are the ones they are selling at their show (if they have any) actual releases or are they just cd-r's for sale?  I would love to get one.

    I own the Catalano debut and they're CD-R's, if you decide you'd like one let me know and I could get a copy at the show if they're selling them

    Anyone know where I can pick up their Dark Skies release.  I can't seem to find it anywhere.

    Used to be through their website https://catalanokills.bigcartel.com/ but physical copies were all gone shortly after the release two years ago. I think they did a second run which also went quick

    Don't know if they'll produce some CDs for their upcoming shows again, I could pick one up for you if they sell any merch at their Stockholm gig next month

    It's a huge honor and BIG responsibility of course to take on this task again, thank you all for buying the last record.
    The band will be the same as last time but with the addition of the fantastic Johan Niemann (Evergrey, Opeth) on bass and as always my right hand and brother, from another mother Michael Palace (Palace, Kryptonite) again handling all guitars. Of course you'll have to endure my drumming and keyboard arrangements plus production once again. :-)

    Been asking myself lately if Palace is still active as a band? Their debut ''Master of the Universe'' from two years ago showed some promise

  7. Album opener "The Way I Am" was released yesterday,  bit rockier with a prominent guitar riff throughout the verses. Now if only pop artists / producers weren't afraid of adding guitar solos to songs (like it was done in the 80s and early 90s)...... I think that would've pushed the track a bit more and added some personality and life
