The debut album from this band from Italy.
The band was a quartet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars, keyboards, synths and vocals.
This is a new band to me. They released their second album earlier this year and I got both their albums for review. I will review their new album later this month.
The band has been described and indeed sold to me as a neo-prog band. The Italian neo-prog scene is indeed both big and strong.
There are indeed some neo-prog in their music. I would still put this band, and indeed this forty minutes long album, in the heavy prog genre.
The music is both muscular and complex. It is melodic too but most of the album is too epic and complex to be labeled as melodic.
The English vocals is pretty good and the band does a good job. The sound is contemporary and not retro-prog at all. There is not even a faint of RPI here.
The result is a more than acceptable debut album and a good album in it's own right.
This too is a band I will follow in the coming years as they are very talented.
