Stakes at low tide, you'll see Run aground comfortably Don't sleep, never die A sigh from deep will rise Hunted down, rampant tide Don't you see the moon will rise Sing now, come what may Tonight the beast be slain Stake down, Flooding tide As you sleep you hear no rhyme It swims towards first-light We hunt our pray tonight Morning breaks across the sand Loud cries and clapping hands Crimson-soaked crashing waves We pray our lives be saved Dragon speared amidst the stakes A frightful scream does make For three days Dragon pained The serpent now be slain

BBT are standard bearers for modern prog, with a sound that evokes the spirit of those legendary 70s bands whilst managing to also be thoroughly contemporary. It's astonishing that over 30 minutes of music of this quality, with such high production values, is being made available for free - and their full albums are also very reasonably priced...
