<\/a><\/p>\nElegacy is a prog-power metal band\/project formed by Constantin Terzago (keyboards)\u00a0and Massimo La Russa (guitars). After their first album ‘Impressions’ in 2005,\u00a0things were put on\u00a0a hold, but they continued writing new songs. In 2011, new hope\u00a0for a next album\u00a0came to life when they contacted Mark Zonder (Fates Warning) and Mike Lepond (Symphony X). Both were excited about the material and joined the project by contributing to the entire rhytmn section. In Ivan Giannini (Derdian) they found the perfect singer to complete the album. The mastering of the album was completed in 2014 and now the album is released.<\/p>\n
With musicians like Mark and Mike, a good singer and some fine written songs, this new album\u00a0is a fine one for every progressive metal fan. The technically skilled musicians deliver some nice melodies\u00a0based on good keyboard lines and\u00a0Ivan’s voice completes it. A perfect example and one of the heavier tracks is “The Dragon’s Age”, where heavy riffs go hand in hand with a fine keyboard line. Sometimes rather heavy riffs carry the song, but also\u00a0some fine\u00a0jazzy piano parts show up.\u00a0The song “The Imperfect Miracle Of Life” has both,\u00a0changing from heavy into softer parts very naturally. The softer parts remind of\u00a0Fates Warning, some more heavier stuff will be appreciated by Symphony X\u00a0and also the ghost of Dream Theater shows its face at times.<\/p>\n
Opener\u00a0“April Sun” is a mix of all three and the soft first part of\u00a0“Autumn In Berlin’\u00a0sounds a lot like DT, halfway the track speeds up and then Symphony\u00a0X influences appear. What I like about the music is that there are certainly very recognizable elements, but the band never sounds like a copy of one of the bands. In a certain way, they succeed in staying rather original.\u00a0That makes it that you\u00a0immediately\u00a0like the music without\u00a0getting bored after a few songs.<\/p>\n
A job well done and stuff for all progressive (metal) fans.<\/p>\n
