Sic Mundus - Illusions (2023)

The debut album from this band from Poland.

The band is a duo with a lineup of bass, keyboards and programming.

A handful of guests added drums, guitars and vocals.

This band is a new band in the progressive rock scene in Poland. A large scene. 

Their music is ranging from melodic prog in the vein of Pink Floyd to some art-rock and neo-prog in the vein of Marillion to the harder prog and metal like Porcupine Tree and Dream Theater. There is also some djent here.

The sound is modern and muscular.

The vocals are also muscular. They are also pretty good. 

Most of the music here is hard and comes with some good guitar solos. Including one from a Riverside guitarist.

The quality is somewhere between decent and good. This is an album the band should be happy with and then build on. I hope we will hear more from this duo/band.

2.5 points
