I figured that out. I wonder what's on the menu of the other site though?

Neal having a link to the Resonate video on his own site tells you all you need to know.
Who's band is it? IT'S NEAL'S BAND!......................................and Michaele's.

I didn't realize Schon had umlauts in the spelling.
What is Neal anyway, nationality wise? I know he's part Italian, but isn't Schon a Germanic name? I can't think of a single Italian surname that doesn't end in a vowel.

Don, it might be my browser. I'm using Google chrome, but every time I type in the url, I just get the same under construction sign.

Must be browser based, definitely. I'm on Mozilla Firefox now and got a chance to listen to it. My first impression echoes Parfait's. The track has so much going on in it that I don't detect any hook or melody. Definitely a misfire for Neal.

I'm seeing "Under Construction" on Firefox and IE. WTF. Maybe someone can toss it on YouTube.

Pretty sure Schon is of German decent, but I don't know what else is in his lineage.
I dig the track a lot myself. Progressive rocking melody. I love the backing rhythm it opens with. Smitty's drums raise the sophistication of Neal's work.
Neal really should do a movie soundtrack. His instrumentals are so cinematic. I'm looking forward to this release.

Schon w/ umlauts is German for 'beautiful' so take that for what it's worth.
Thanks to Don's MP3, I had the opportunity to listen to the track on my computer and it sounded a hell of a lot different than the steaming pile I heard at school. TNC hit the nail on the head with the description of cinematic and the rhythm track was great.
Still had a few weak parts, but a colossal improvement over my first impression.

Actually, it was ST, not TNC, but thanks for the props.

This track is underwhelming to say the least. Nothing can compare to what he released in the 90s

And without an umlaut it means "already." As in, "Enough with the bimbos, already!"
Anyway....Neal is Italian. It's not uncommon to find German surnames in Northern Italy since they're only separated by Switzerland.

The only logic that makes this statement correct is the same logic negated by the Steve Perry is not the original singer argument

Cool hook by Neal, but Smith's playing sound like a drum machine. Technically impeccable, but I'm not really feelin the groove.
