Progressive, melodic, heavily orchestrated rock with celtic and space rock influences
] ');');');. I have privately released two albums, "The Last Druids" (2002) and "The Eye of the Cyclone" (2003). These are, according to one reviewer "progressive rock heavily informed by celtic music", though there are also space-rock influences in the second album. My next album "The Store of All the Worlds" will be released in March 2004. See album and concert reviews in the "Reviews" section. You may see reviews of the albums at the excellent "Aural Innovations" site: http://www.aural-innovations.com/issues/issue22/tombyrne.html and http://www.aural-innovations.com/issues/issue24/tombyrn2.html

Lyrics
In Lexington they're going to burn the Library of Congress for charity Round its funeral pyre the flames will churn As night and winter's darkness spurn And threaten with their clarity ah-ha See the flames they're burning up Burning so bright, it's Fahrenheit....it's called Chorus: Fahrenheit 451 Fahrenheit 451 The fun has just begun Fahrenheit...451 Oh see the pages all catching fire see the building shimmering now It was like this when witches reared against the stake, we stood and peered At such Aladdin's caves of air Oh I wish you could have seen us there spreading all around that funeral pyre watching the flames burn higher and higher [Repeat Chorus] Fahrenheit 451 Fahrenheit 451 The burning has just begun It's like a mushroom cloud or the sun Fahrenheit...451 The fire's fierce theatre draws herds of folk all willing to be hypnotised Anemones of flames and smoke enchant us so we gladly choke on Fahrenheit 451
