Solo & Sessions Review (-s) Interview Sankara.

Dylan Thompson leaves the Reasoning!!!!
28th October 2010
Greetings All,
Warmest wishes from The Reasoning HQ. We are writing with details of an unexpected and important announcement.
We are saddened to advise you all that Dylan Thompson has resigned from The Reasoning with immediate effect. His decision is a personal one and we all respect that. Over the past five years we have shared much fun and creativity together. All of The Reasoning wish Dylan every happiness and success for the future.
Whilst this event has obviously come as a surprise, The Reasoning’s November tour dates will very definitely be going ahead.
The faith that the band has in the spirit and potential of what we are doing is unshakeable. Moreover, we are fully committed to you, our friends, and are determined not to let you down. Rehearsals have already proven that the five-piece line-up sounds fantastic. We are really excited about the new song arrangements that have been constructed; albeit at short notice.
We hope to see as many of you as possible on the road next month as we rise to this new challenge with courage and, as always, dedication to the journey upon which we have embarked together.
With much love
The Reasoning
“This dream will never be over; we’ll keep it alive….”
Jee i'm concerned.. i always thought that Dylan would end up as the new Tarzan on Broadway, but that he would stay with the band as writer, composer and
fabulous voice.
Despite the fact that i like Rachels voice, it was the combination of Dylan (raw, Jimmy Hendrix like), Garteth Jones (sweet, a real good pop voice,
now in Sankara)
and Rachel (angelesque) that made me shiffer.
Hope they'll survive and have the power to grow... i'm not optimistic.
According to m y dear friend Tim; they survive:

Hey Nick,
So great to hear from you sir. ..... I am very busy with my new band, The Reasoning.
We are currently recording demo songs for the album and things are coming on very nicely.
I also have the original Magenta drummer, Rhys, on board with me too, so that is cool.
We are doing a more rock thing but with prog influences/ We will be more like Coheed and
Cambria, Amplifier and Pure Reason Revolution.
Matthew.
Good luck dear friend,
Nick!

News 23th of April 2008:
More info and pictures on this page.
Dutch interview by Michiel Scheijen.
So for all the Dutch fans an interview of
Io-Pages you can find here &
Part II
Thanks to
Io-Pages.
May '09.
We are delighted to announce that the DVD from last October’s show at the Robin 2 in Bilston (the very first of our “Official Bootleg” series)
will be on sale in the official Online Shop
here from Friday 15th May: at the special credit crunch price of only £6 (inc p&p)! To keep the price so ridiculously low there’s no
fancy packaging, and although we describe it as a “Bootleg”, this is a five-camera edit, and the audio and video quality are both
fantastic! Feedback from those who bought it at the April gigs has been phenomenal.
The film includes the entire set: Sharp Sea, Dark Angel, Fallen Angels, Aching Hunger, Chasing Rainbows, Shadows Of The Mind, Call Me God?, Absolute Zero, Breaking The 4th Wall, How Far To Fall?, A Musing Dream and Awakening. For those of you have not been able to see us live yet, it’s a great way to experience the intensity, passion and fun that is a TR gig!
Dark Angel ('09).
A fantastic new album, dark, heavy riffs and those 3 vocalist are amazing.
A double review of Dark Angel.
A fantastic trailer.
Release date 6th October and release party 6th of September; London the Royal George.
John Mitchel (Arena, IQ, It's Bites, Frost, The Urban) is busy with the mix of the new darker album!
A special edition is now on pre-sale. This will take the form of a 1,000 run pressing which
will include the album
plus a bonus DVD. On the DVD will be the "making-of", plus some on-the-road footage...and some little extras.
A double review of Dark Angel you can
find here.
So far we have written about 13 tracks, although not all of these will make the final cut. I am very happy to confirm that we have a definite 7 in the bag which are ready to rock – and these will certainly define the album. There are several more writing sessions scheduled for this month – and by December we will definitely have completed tracks for this release – plus a great deal of additional material for future use, too!
For those of you who'd like a sneaky preview of a few "working" song titles, the following are for you [in no particular order!] –
Both joined forces in Sankara.
The Chauffeur a DuranDuram cover will be released as single. A version of this was performed as a part of the band’s live set in April, but it has now been given a complete Reasoning makeover, and will be available as a digital download on 10 August from all major digital distributors.
September '09
After some hassling the new band is:
August '09.
The Reasoning released a single called "The Chaffeur", indeed a cover from DuranDuran. You can download it here
at Amazon.
They did a gig at the Fish convention with the following new people:
A live review on this site (oct '08).
Adverse Camber ('10).
A new album. No futher news... sorry.
Apparently they're very busy; they released in July 2010 an acoustic album: Acoustically Speaking.
Within Cold Glass; The Thirteenth Hour; Aching Hunger; Dark Angel; The Nobody Effect; A Musing Dream; In the Future; Sacred Shape
and Script
Switch Trigger.
They did visit the States: Rosfest and that leads to a live cd:
In November 2011 they released their first live cd Bottle Of Gettysburg.
A live cd was released in October 2011, from their performance at Rosfest earlier this year.
On top of that, the band are working on a four track EP entitled And Another Thing…, which will be released on download only in December 2011.
The new ( 4th!) album will see the daylight early 2012.
Another thing/ (1012).
So here it is folks, the all new "And Another Thing......." EP cover created by Richard Pocock. We love it so we hope you do too.
Pre-order details will be posted in full, tomorrow.
Hello, dear friends, we hope that all is well with you. So... (finally) our brand new EP, entitled And Another Thing....... is recorded, mixed and ready for mastering. This is somewhat of a milestone for The Reasoning, since it will be the last of our products to be released via our independent label Comet Music. This makes it a very special CD for us, not least because it marks the end of an era and the beginning of a whole new one. The EP is also the first release that's fully representative of our (now nicely established) 5 piece line-up: all band members have contributed to the song-writing for the first time, making it a real team effort. We're SO excited about you hearing these tracks!
So: how do you get hold of it? We have decided to do one last pre-order: this time, you'll be able to get the CD a week before the official release date (12th March 2012), and the first 500 copies will be signed by the band. We have kept the price as low as possible, and pre-orders will be separated into territories - UK / Europe / Rest Of World. This is so that we can be fair when it comes to the pricing of postage, etc.
Anyway, we suppose you want to know the track listing... which is as follows:
2) Apophenia
3) Pale Criminal
4) 21 Grams
Thanks for all your incredible support during the "Comet" years and here is to you and the future. See you on the other side.
Love as always,
Rach, Owain, Tony, Matt and Jake xxxxxxx
