Steam Theory - Chrysalis (2024)

 

The fifth album from this band from USA.

The band was a trio with a lineup of bass, guitars, synths, drum programming and vocals.

I thought I had reviewd their first four albums... but I was wrong. So I will do those reviews sometimes in the next couple of years.

As I have yet to review their first four albums, I do not know their history or development. I have to review this album as it is and as a single album.

The music on this album is US progressive rock with some symphonic prog and goth rock influences.

The vocals are female vocals and they are good.

The instrumentation is a bit bare and simple. Ditto for the sound which is the 1990s progressive metal sound. 

The music is big, bold and epic throughout. The quality is somewhere between decent and good. 

This is an album well worth checking out if US progressive metal is your thing.

2.5 points
