New VAST record is currently in the works, and most recent news is that the debut LP has been given vinyl treatment:

HELL YEAH! Can't wait to get the album on Vinyl!
Also, I suggest checking out Jon's side project Bang Band SiXXX

I really liked April. I know a lot of people don't care for it, but I find myself putting it on repeat more often than other VAST albums.

still holding on a bit of hope he can match VAST, Music for People (my personal fav) and Nude.. since then the whole project seems to have just treadwater. April was ok but I couldn't name a track off Me and You.. sad as they were a huge part of my music radar, I used to love the old VMB too.

The song Here got me into Vast and after that I followed the chronological progression of the albums. Recently (two days ago?) I threw Music For People in my car stereo and have a new-found appreciation for it. I've liked it since I got it, but I'd find myself listening to VAST or Nude rather than MFP a lot of the time. I'm hearing things buried in the music that I hadn't heard before, which tells me I wasn't listening closely enough.
This is one of the few bands that me and my three best friends all like a good deal. I've seen them in concert twice and if they come around again, I'll Shirley be going then, too. The only reason I know about Vast is because of a friend's brother. A friend who I met on a forum, and whose brother I've never actually met. The internet is such a wonderful place.

I first heard VAST in 2000 and picked up the MFP album, then the self-titled, and enjoyed them both for years. I didn't mind the Crimson and Turqoise releases, but I missed the samples and keyboards.
Since then I listened to April, and pretty much lost all interest until I got A Complete Demonstration. Man, If You're In Heaven is such a bad ass track, wish he would have kept making music like that.
Jon doing his acoustic ballad shtick completely turned me off.
