“The
Power Of Suggestion”
self-released
rating: 5.5 / 6

Australia? Prog metal? PROG METAL FROM AUSTRALIA?! Are you kidding? This
must have been a mistake. A mailman’s mistake. Someone else’s
mistake. This kind of music can’t be delivered by anyone of Down
Under, man. Never ever. But what the hell, it’s not a mistake at
all. Nor a nonsense. Yes, this is prog metal at it’s best, prog
metal of Aussie origin. And to tell you the truth, this is one of the
few bands of this kind I got high; and more. Everything’s played
in an unbelievably tight way, and hey, what’s most important, everything’s
crafted and composed so well that one may wonder if DREAM THEATER’ve
moved to Australia. Vocals? Perfect. Especially taking into account the
fact this guy’s also responsible for drum tracks (which are, needless
to say, brilliant as well). Musicianship? Well, a comparison with DREAM
THEATER must have told you something, I suppose. Sound execution? Nothing
to complain about. A multi-album deal? Definitely coming their way…
