| Does anyone remember the Chapel Hill, North Carolina based act named Delorean that in 2004 put out its progressive hard rock debut "Dauntless" before following up several years later with sophomore release "Edge Of Existence".
I just discovered that Delorean guitarist Dan Cummins last week released his second solo album "Storm". Musically, it is more hard rock in comparison to Delorean but does not forsake the artists progressive based roots.
Following are samples at CD Baby: https://www.cdbaby.com/cd/dancummins1
Here is a YouTube link to the song "Stardust": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sl4G5MBCPvM
As well as the song "Eye On Me": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uG8lWLoKylc
Also note how it took 3 to 4 listens for his material to grow on me. | |

| I have their second album (Edge of Existence), and I like it for the most part, even though I am not really a huge fan of the progressive stuff. Going to have to check this out. _________________ "I used to be indecisive.......... Now I'm not sure."

| Pretty good but are most of those instrumentals? Only 3 clips had vox. I see Stardust does, too. _________________ "If you are not concerned about your neighbor's salvation, you should be concerned about your own."

| Album has two instrumental tracks, but a good portion of many of the vocal songs are instrumental. | |

| I like the style. With only two songs clocking in at 7 and 12 minutes, I may still check this out. I can always skip those if I don't like them. _________________ I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. https://christianhardmusic.niceboard.com/ | |

| If you want the album downloads of his new project, they are 50 cents cheaper on Amazon. I found a previous album "Leviathan" on eMusic for $6.49. _________________ I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. https://christianhardmusic.niceboard.com/ | |

| wow... I could be interested in this...
Prog Rock!!! Not enough with a Christian point of view imo... but then most of it is probably obscure... i.e. I've no clue who are how to find it...!!

"Storm" is available at CD Baby and Amazon. In terms of lyrics, "Storm" is an autobiographical concept album that (as taken from the artists press material) 'was written during a personal journey through some tough times with relationships, mental illness, doubts, faith etc. While not an overly religious work, the themes are heavily influenced by my Christian worldview". | |

| Hey Guys, Dan Cummins here, I found this thread because it was late and I was googling to see how my album was tracking over the internet. Anyway, thanks so much for the kind words. I really appreciate it. It's also nice to know our old Delorean albums are still getting love. I'll be sure to pass that on to the guys.
"Storm" was a big thing for me personally as well as musically, so I'm really happy you guys are enjoying it. It's not really a concept album in the sense that there's a story, but each song is a different emotion/perspective on a rough personal experience and it was very cathartic to put all those feelings out into songs.
Thanks again for listening and/or buying. You guys are cool. -Dan | |

| Well thank you I'm very appreciative of you guys' opinions as well. Feel free to share any and all thoughts you have, like which songs you think are best/worst or feelings about the playing/production. I can go more in-depth about the tunes if needed.
