Thought Chamber

Michael paired up with Enchant vocalist Ted Leonard after the two had met online. After demoing an album’s worth of material, they recorded the final tracks with Ted on lead vocals; Michael on guitar, keyboards, & harmony vocals; Rob Stankiewicz on drums; Derek Blakley on bass; and Bobby Williamson contributing some keyboard solos.

Under the name THOUGHT CHAMBER, “Angular Perceptions” was released on Inside Out Music in April of 2007. The record was met with much critical acclaim and was in Mike Portnoy’s top 20 prog releases of the year.
