 :o WOW ;D

First off - Awesome Travis!! I hope you are as excited about releasing this as we all are about hearing it. The artwork is phenomenal (will posters be made available?) I can\'t wait to buy it, I want to send my money now. I\'m very intersted in track 11 - it all looks intriguing. And that is a great title, very appropriate to the music I\'m sure.

Congratulations and thank you ;)

Congratulations Travis on what looks like is gona be a terrific body of work!! I support the notions of this pleasing loyal followers but that it is likely to attract fresh faces also; the musicality and texture in those two tracks you\'ve made available to preview is immense! I particulary enjoyed the addition of strings- a violin to Scansion and a cello to Legerdmain- believing they, not so unsurprisingly really, added a welcome extra dimension and layering/depth both to the mix/style whilst also being allowed, like the guitar, drums and keyboards, to jump out a little and articulate at points-lengths during the song! Very dense music yet alive and organic...looking very much forward to the full album. Cheers Travis! ;D

Thanks everyone for your interest. I\'ve added pre-ordering to the Iconography page for those that expressed an interest in it. The release is a little uncertain, plus or minus a day or so because of the holiday season but I\'m told they will be ready before Christmas.

It does feel good to have it done. Thanks again.

Love or hate wikipedia i put the info up

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iconography_(album)

Im just trying to spread the news arround so i think this is something.

If any of u have any info u want me to add post a reply here, or if you can plz add it yourself.

Travis, that goes to you too, i think i had very little information about the album, if u can tell me the album lenght, producer, recording time, genre, among others would be great. Also if u have a picture of the cover so i can upload it there too.

Thanks

I\'d be rather shocked if there is a tour at all, so I don\'t think wishing for a UK leg really is any less realistic.

I haven\'t been here in WAY too long, but am glad I saw this in time to jump on the pre-order bandwagon!

So glad to see new material from you, Travis, this should be a treat!

All the best to everyone involved with TDRS -- you rock!  ;D

Thanks to everyone who placed a pre-order for Iconography. I\'ve got word that I can expect them to arrive to me today (22nd) or tomorrow. Because it\'s so close to the holidays there was some uncertainty about it\'s exact arrival. As soon as they arrive they will be mailed out.  I\'ll post here as soon as they arrive.
Title: Re: ICONOGRAPHY

Post by: ella_mental on January 04, 2010, 10:20:33 pm
I finally got enough time to listen to Iconography all the way through.  I listened to half of it a few times.

Definitely a lot happening.  Maybe kind of like a melodic Needle In A Slunk Stack.  I like the Theremin.

I played a little of Iconography for my husband, and he said the music sounds like a mix of Kansas and Yes.  He is impartial, so I hope that\'s a compliment.  I can kind of hear that era in the music.  I also heard a few echoes of Floyd, which I really enjoyed.

Thanks for signing it Travis!

I know this is going to sound terrible, but I have not gotten this yet. This is due to money problems at the moment (I\'m a college student, so that\'s already a bevvy of problems). I really want to get this album though, and I\'ll try to get it as soon as possible.

Hex I think I am.

one of them 44 (forty four) friends... checking in a minute

listening to Icon again #6 just finished.

I think the comparisons were spot on with Flyod and Yes and Thanatopsis and Dragons of Eden but it also has elements of Gorgone and Population Override as Well.

Post by: grinder on February 02, 2010, 03:52:36 am
I\'m a long time lurker but I recently registered. I have to say, I got my copy last week. The two preview tracks only hinted at the depth of this CD. I love it. I understand now how much Travis has contributed to Thanatopsis, the Dragons of Eden and even Population Overide. This takes that and expands on it immeasurably.  I\'ve listened to it now several times and it takes a while to really appreciate the all the amazing complexity\'s of the arrangements. This will be spinning in my CD player for some time to come. I came here as a Buckehead fan and now I\'m a big Travis fan. Can\'t wait to see what else is coming down the pipe.

Just got this today and listened to the whole thing. I FREAKING LOVE IT! And what\'s even better, I played it for my parents, and both of them really like it to. Such a great album with so much talent on it. I\'ll be listening to this album for a while. Awesome job Travis. ;D ;D ;D

Am sorry, I wrote in the wrong thread.

I havven\'t gone true the whole Iconography yet, but it sounds really good. Very interesting. Nothing like I have heard before.
