OK, I ordered their Scarsick CD when I was considering going to see the Progressive Nation 2009 show and I thought Pain of Salvation was one of the acts. I didn't go to the show, but I just got the CD. I've only listened to the first few songs and my eyes are bugging out of my head. I'm blown away so far. t's a really good listen. Damn. Is anythone here really into them?

i was trying to think of how to articulate, i mean its kind of this operatic dark sounding like rock music. Where is the progressiveness?? i guess its in the texture or the rhythm? I dont know, maybe i just like more progressive melody and harmony --but i think the kind of depressing over tones have something to do with it. Yea maybe the name of the band says it all "Pain of Salvation"--lets think about it--not very uplifting and it certainly doesnt exude glittering new ideas.
but i think im kind of a purist

ok, i agree with u. ive had the album or a couple weeks and only listened a few times cause it didnt really catch me. it doesnt feel progressive to me either. and the lyrics, while intelligent in a way and i appreciate the effort and message, are borderline annoying. i feel like he is talking down to me in a holier-than-thou way. he comes across as someone that knows everything about everything. idk.
