Protean Circus - Rhymes In The Voice Of River (2019)
The debut album from this Italian band.
The band is a sextet with a lineup of drums, bass, keyboards, guitars and vocals.
The band is a youthful, enthusiastic band and that is reflected in their music.
Their music is not really RPI at all. It is progressive to a large extent, though.
Take some neo-prog, some celtic rock and add AOR and progressive metal to the mix. That is where you will find this album.
The album is a concept album too. An hour long concept album.
The music is a mix of melodic and pretty hard rock with some metallic edges. The music is also ambitious and the band has set themselves some high standards.
The album is sadly lacking in the quality department. The songs are not as good as I hoped. The vocals are good though and the band is good too.
This album falls between decent and good. It is still well worth checking out. If they release more albums, I will most certainly check out these.
