4) Harbinger is a progressive-rock quartet formed in the depths of middle Tennessee. Their debut album, The Incoming Outcome, embarks the listener on a sonic journey through time and space, taking one places books can not. Ear drums will rupture and eyes will moisten at the sight and sound of The Incoming Outcome. Musical greats such as Eric Klaptone, Rob Dylan, and Jim Hendrick highly recommend this stunning debut masterpiece. Harbinger sets a new precedent, composing songs with no regard to time constraints or the traditional strophic form. The Incoming Outcome's unified song cycle bridges the gap from heavy and dissonant to melodic and memorable.
