Query: No, Travis walked away with the name AND the talent.

What can I say? I liked the first DOTN record, but LOVED the 2nd. Travis Meeks is an amazing songwriter and innovative musician. The 2nd album showed a diverse plate of influences, and broke him completely free of all the "AIC Ripoff" characteristics.So, the three former members of DOTN, formed Tantric, and strangely wanted to be characterized as an "AIC Ripoff". They strive to sound like them in hopes of success. They even used the same producer. So far, their plan is working, but it won't be long until they slip back through the cracks to obscurity.As for the new singer, Hugo lacks the raw essence of what a singer should be. The singing sounds forced and mechanical. The guitar parts are nothing more than rehashed solos that Todd stole from Travis.Besides, why settle for second-rate bland rock, when a new DOTN cd is coming out in a month or two?
