The debut album from this artist from Portugal.
Mario Lopes did the drums, percussion, bass and piano here.
He got help from numerous guests who added bass, guitars, mandolin, accordion, strings, piano, woodwinds and voices.
This album is a bit of a strange one.
It is first of all a debut album from a musician, artist and a composer who want to show off, and rightly so, all his abilities. This is when you get multi-genres albums like this one.
The basis here is fusion, or jazz rock as he prefers to call it, and latin jazz. Add in some cinematic rock and...... progressive metal and djent.
Yes, we get some pretty harsh and extreme metal here.
But most of this forty minutes long album is a mix of latin jazz and fusion. The flutes and tin whistle is also adding some celctic flavours to this music.
There is a lot of twists, turns and interesting details on this album. That makes this quite a punchy, short album a good album and one well worth checking out even for those of us into progressive rock. Indeed... the Canterbury prog fans and the fusion fans will find a lot of enjoyments on this album.
