Chris Maitland, former drummer of Porcupine Tree, has teamed up with Ayreon mastermind Arjen Lucassen for a new project. Chris recorded the drum tracks at the RS 29 Studio in Drunen, The Netherlands, from November 9-12.\"Not only did Chris Maitland live up to my (admittedly high) expectations; he surpassed them! I\'ve been a big fan of his drumming ever since I heard Porcupine Tree\'s \'Signify\' in 1996, and particularly since seeing him play live with them.
Chris\'s playing has it all: great energy and power coupled with a perfect groove and flawless technique.\"
Arjen almost worked with Chris on Ayreon\'s album \'The Dream Sequencer\' in 1999, but that didn\'t work out at the very last moment. Eventually Rob Snijders stepped in to record all drum parts.
