Nice! Was just listening to Mirror of Souls a few weeks ago, and this teaser contains a lot of what I love about it.

Ooooo! More Theocracy is always welcome! Is there any chance you could post the track lengths?
 
That cover art is pretty legit.

Headlining European tour?  Way to go, guys!

I just got Mirror Of Souls a few months back. That's some very fine power-prog there, so I'm looking forward to this.

Never got Mirrors of Souls, but have their first album and have heard most of their Christmas tunes.  Like all I've heard.  Will be picking up both albums soon.

Thanks guys!  Yeah, we toured Europe the first time at the end of 09, so we can't wait to go back.  And Lambo, I may be willing to dig out the track times for ya. ;)
 
Thanks for the kind words; we're really proud of this record and can't wait for you to hear it.

Aww man, love Theocracy stuff, shame you can't come to England.
 
One day hopefully!

Love it! Can't wait to hear the new stuff Matt! Been watching your site for a while for this.

Wow, this preview is great. I'm gonna have to order this one. It reminds me more of the first album.

404 double post

Awesome news!

Matt, are there going to be any bonus tracks, for example on the Japanese edition? I want to know so that I know which may be the best version to buy. Thanks!

Ahh... Remember the days of the Metallica parody?  That was an epic moment in MP.com history.

Looking forward to the new album.  The trailer sounds great!  I'm also curious about whether there will be any Japenese bonus tracks, etc.

Thanks guys! I honestly haven't heard anything about a Japanese version at this point...I can tell you we haven't recorded a bonus track as of yet, but I'll keep you posted. :)

Very much looking forward to this. I've spun Mirror of Souls an embarrassing number of times.

Trailer sounds just awesome!! Mirror of Souls is really just so amazing album to me that it'll be hard to top... I hope I will be proven wrong. 

New digital single is out today (iTunes, Amazon MP3, Spotify, etc.):

Man I can't wait for this!!!
Will be grabbing the new single in a bit!

Well, they have the wrong cover, and the clips seem totally random, but Amazon has the track lengths and 30-sec clips up if you're interested:

The chorus of 30 Pieces Of Silver sent shivers down my spine.
 
Very excited to hear the rest of the record. :)

I'm liking it.  I want the vinyl but the shipping makes it come to almost double the price.  Looks like CD for this guy

I can't find the original thread for The Anthem of the Cheat, so I'm gonna sidetrack this one for a bit. This video reminded me of it. Think Mark Cuban may have taken a listen?

Ha!  I hadn't seen that.

Well, today's the day at last.  I hope you guys enjoy it.  Crank it! :)

After a terrible time of it being stuck in the post, it arrived today! Really digging my first listen here. I just finished the Gift of Music and my neck is now sore. :D

BEST Theocracy disc so far! GREAT JOB Matt!

One of my favorite albums and in heavy rotation currently. Flat out AMAZING! Although I'm still not happy that there was no Christmas tune for 2011. I know, I know and understand why, but I look forward to those!!!
