Crippled Black Phoenix - White Light Generator (2014)

I enjoy a lot of the records this band has made, even if some of the pieces seem to/can overstay their welcome a bit. And this record doesn't appear to be too short like some of their other extensive-ideas based albums.

But, it's coming in only a couple of weeks, and I usually enjoy more than enough from them to still want to go back to it.

Also interesting how the title almost looks like the great Typhoon record from 2013, White Lighter. Maybe the 2 bands should tour together?

2011 I got pretty into these guys, or rather, they were/are one of my favorite new bands . So naturally I'm pretty interested in this. 2 CDs? This might be pretty lengthly, which may not matter. I will say, as much as I have really enjoyed getting into them, some of their compositons are pretty extensive, which hurts them I suppose a bit.

And as noted in that link above, the release date is January 30th, 2011.

Still, among the upcoming records, this is still pretty high on my list.
