Hey guys
Here is the full album stream of my band TERAMAZE- HER HALO.
PROG MAGAZINE UK review: Aussie prog metallers produce an exceptional work of real depth.This Melbourne/Geelong band are clearly superb musicians, but the uber-shred attitude beloved of so many occupants of this particular subgenre is not for them: they approach the music from a two-pronged base of melody and contemplative lyrical content.While the songs gain great depth from the faith-based writing process, they’re subtle and thought-provoking in their message. The way the songs are constructed from the melody up gives this album the depth and resonance of major works in this genre, such as Queensrÿche’s Operation: Mindcrime or Dream Theater’s Scenes From A Memory. There’s brutal power when needed, as on the title track or For The Innocent, while elsewhere, the 13-minute opener An Ordinary Dream and the closing one-two of Broken and Delusions Of Grandeur truly scale epic peaks. The more you listen, the more certain you become that Her Halo is one of the finest prog metal releases of recent years. Exceptional.

I was literally just about to post this, but glad you did instead. Dean, I've probably said this a million times, but I hope this album really puts you guys on everyone's radar. I'm only on track 6 right now, and I've had goosebumps since the first note of song 1. "For the Innocent" has one of the nastiest, brutal, hooky riffs I've ever heard. What an incredible song.

As a metal/guitar fan, this year (especially the last 2 months) has been crazy full of new music from Iron Maiden, Slayer, Stryper, Act of Defiance, Joe Satriani, Queensryche, The Winery Dogs, Trivium, etc. But the new Teramaze is what's been the most anticipated for me. And, even on my first listen, I'm farking blown away. To say "Her Halo" is exceptional is an understatement. And I mean that in all sincerity. Good, new music just excites me. I've been a metal fan since I was 10 years (so, yeah, 35 years ago) old and my CD collection is absurd. Sometimes you think you've heard it all, and then something like this comes along and it's simply thrilling to me. This album is going to be on repeat on my work computer and in my car for a stupid long time, just like the previous two albums were. Maybe even longer. It's brilliant.

I know everyone on this board has a super wide taste in music, but I hope everyone grabs a copy of this CD to support the BEST prog metal band out there. I hope BP puts a gigantic poster of Dean on the EBMM HQ building. And I hope someone wises up and gets these guys on tour in the US and everywhere else around the globe so I can say "I TOLD YOU SO!!!!" :D

Congrats on a masterful piece of art, Dean. And thank you for sharing it with us. Can't wait to get my CD next week. \M/ \M/

Dean, I have a quick question for you. There's a recording of an elderly man talking about death and love half way through the first song. Is that from a movie? What a powerfully emotional epic that song is. Can't tell you how many times I listened to it and the album over the wknd. Absolutely blown away.

Great stuff! This is progressive metal as it should be played... Great melodies at the first place, not just senseless 8 string bs... ;) Tnx for sharing!

Guys this album really rocks, probably one of the best albums I ever heard. Especially the Songs Her Halo and Broken caught my attention. Simply beautiful and glad I found Teramaze. Greetings from Switzerland!

I haven't been able to stop listening to it since the week of the streaming preview. Mind. Blown.
