Transatlantic have never been a band that could resist a challenge. So it should come as no surprise that Neal Morse, Roine Stolt, Pete Trewavas and Mike Portnoy are doing something unusual on their fifth album. "We had the idea for something unprecedented" said Portnoy proudly. "We have two versions of the album. There's a 2CD version ("Forevermore") which is 90 minutes long, and a single CD version ("The Breath Of Life") - which is 60 minutes long. The single CD is NOT an edited version of the double CD. They are new recordings. We used different approaches to the songs to make this! We wrote new lyrics and different people sing on the single CD version compared to double CD version. We reworked the songs to make the two versions different."
