New single āThe Denial:ā āā¦she sent me a file of a fully-realized song: a rousing refrain, a killer guitar solo, a jarring and gut-wrenching bridge, a return to the refrain and a reprise of that killer solo and what did I do? I RTZāed and played it again and againā - A. Tap

Seems like now would be a good time for everyone to read Memory Of Fire, yeah? Maybe start with Century of the Wind for expediency.
