There are (at least) three bands with the name Threshold: an English progressive metal band, an American R&B band and a Finnish progressive rock band.
1. A progressive metal band from the South of England, consisting of Damian Wilson (vocals), Karl Groom (guitar), Richard West (keyboards), Steve Anderson (bass), Johanne James (drums) and Pete Morten (guitar).
The band’s early years saw four highly acclaimed albums released through the independent label GEP. After some line-up changes and many tours in Europe alongside bands such as Dream Theater, Threshold signed to Inside Out Music in 2000.
The albums “Hypothetical” and “Critical Mass” were released in 2001 and 2002, enjoying chart success in Europe while creating a strong reputation with both fans and the music press alike. A live DVD/CD set entitled “Critical Energy” was subsequently released at the beginning of 2004, while Threshold returned to the studio to record their most successful studio album to date, “Subsurface”.
In early 2007, founding member Nick Midson (guitar) announced he is taking a break from the band, largely driven by wanting a break from touring and promotional activities.
2007 also sees Threshold signed with Nuclear Blast Records, with it’s new album entitled, “Dead Reckoning”.
Shortly before the release of Dead Reckoning, Mac (vocalist) left Threshold, and previous frontman Damian Wilson stepped in as vocalist for the DR tour, and has stayed in the band to date.

There's going to be a new fan club CD out soon. They've got Glynn Morgan back for a couple of tracks and there'll be some new DW bits as well. Looking forward to this one.

Sum Bleus still the most played album ^_^ . Seriously, Psychedelicatessen was the album I started with, 15 years ago or so. Into The Light is a fucking awsome track, as is Exposed.

The only growls the band has ever seen are both on Dead Reckoning, in the songs Slipstream and Elusive. And that's it. :) Dunno what you think you've heard on Hypothetical, though. :D

Thanks, I started with Hypothetical. Sounds very good, it hasn't that bad growling like on "Slipstream" (heard on youtube). What's with Critical Mass, does it have growls?

Critical Mass is a personal favorite, the album is great overall but the title track is amazing.
