WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR??
The reviews are pouring in and it's unanimous....
SOUNDSCAPE - Grave New World - ROCKS!!!!
here's a few clips...
15 out of a possible 16! - Featuring the distinctive speedy guitar-keyboard interplay
of Todd Rose and Rob Thorne, respectively, plus Thorne’s amazing
reach-for-the-sky vocals, this is high-energy prog-metal at its finest.
Even lyrical themes addressing depersonalization/social alienation in the
computer-driven digital age remain freshly topical, suggesting a band ahead of
its time. But, I keep coming back to Grave New World’s dense, ultra-tight
arrangements and sleight-of-hand instrumental prowess: “Age of Wonder,” clocking
in at 14 minutes, doesn’t waste a second in leaving you breathless. Come back,
guys! – John Collinge -PROGRESSION Magazine
Soundscape was piloted by Sacred Oath
vocalist/keyboardist Rob Thorne who simply has an amazing voice - one
of the best in metal. Tremendous range, power and control are his
trademark. He's not a bad keyboardist as well. Guitarist Todd Rose is
one of the real overlooked players - he has incredible fluidity and
facility - he makes it all look easy. A thunderous rhythm section from
Scott Waite and Lou Caldarola round out the lineup. This was a
significant advance from Discovery, their first album. The music got
heavier but all the melodies are in place and its symphonic and big
sounding. So you have great music, now with a mix that does it justice.
Grab this one and be totally blown away. BUY OR DIE!!
-Ken Golden -the Lazer's Edge
Time will of course tell a great deal. But I am thinking not if this album
is a Classic, but how much of an All-time Classic will it be. An "Instant Classic"
for sure. Perhaps the fastest ever for me. I loved it upon hearing the 1st note.
They went deep this time with me and scored Big-time. Like 10 or 20 fold perhaps.
They know when-to-be, and when not-to be
epic or extend parts or songs out really effectively. Which seems to be
pretty rare in most or any kind of music labeled "progressive" or
"technical." - KG - All Media Reviews
