The next time I have pleasure to review a band from Canadian label Unicorn Digital Inc. Obviously the Canadians' music is strongly marked a progressive breath. I think that the fans of instrumental projects of type GORDIAN KNOT, BLOTTED SCIENCE or RON JARZOMBEK will like “Evolution”.
SPACED OUT “Evolution” is a fifth studio album. The album contains the varied combinations of Progressive Rock/Metal with Jazz Fusion. People say that the album portrays a musicians' musical evolution. Really, this album is very rich in a various arrangements. “Evolution” is a trip to the different levels of musical sound and a melody. The musical space is full of the subjects and the masterly serves, the unexpected changes of melody as well as of the hard rhythmical hits. Those neverending compositions are very intricate and variables (I mean about an intensity of sounds). Sometimes the melodies are showed pretty gentle and freely. Other time the music is very intensive, maybe chaotic and very tense. Although this is an intentional effect.
The “Evolution” is pretty difficult in a perception for usual listener of rock music. In the moments the listener has to strain pretty well to not overlook some musical subject. The produced atmosphere is a very condensed and a heavy. Majority of time the music keeps a tension. This all thanks to the continuous instrumental technical and masterly serves. The whole creates a pretty psychotic and dark climate and even a cyclophrenic climate.
“Evolution” is the album for connoisseurs of typical Progressive Rock/Metal and Jazz Fusion. The album is very matured and is planned in every millisecond. However the lack of vocals is the minus here. The vocals would give a bit of repose from these instrumental struggles. Well… This is a speciality of such type of projects.
