I'm flabbergasted that anyone would recommend Ayreon to Frown. They are everything he hates about prog. You might as well recommend the new Marillion album to him! There is zero, repeat zero possibility he will find anything good about it. Put it this way: I know Ayreon (though I haven't heard this one) and I like them. Therefore, by default, Frown will hate them. There's just no way. You're wasting your time.
