Very nice mellow album. The perfect antidote after watching a really crazy Black Mirror episode. I melodies are nice but maybe a bit to mellow for my taste. I like a little more drama typically in my prog. We have added it to the library so please give it a shot by requesting below. [usrlist "PREVIOUS BAND RATING:4" "ACCESSIBILITY:4"...
Mark’s Quick Reviews: Existence’s – Origins0 (0)
If you have never read the key for my ratings below please do so one time. I feel my ratings are tougher than my peers. Also Check my last.fm link to see how compatible our music tasts are. Origins is a double album from the band Existence. There are some really good passages in this album. I personally think the vocals are "off putting" at times despite sounding a bit like Roger Waters. The band has 1000's of followers on facebook so I am going to just defer to the masses that the vocals are just fine as they are. [usrlist...

Holy Gentle Giant. This album sure sounds like the a fore mentioned band thanks to the vocal harmonies and instrumentation. The well known Nad Sylvan adding to the vocals here. It has a lot of influences in funk. So much so after about 12 measures I was thinking this was a bad Earth Wind and Fire album. I think any fan of GG will appreciate this album. I...

So this album had my attention right away I thought it started out decent. But about 15 minutes in I was really done with it. I wanted to like it but frankly the last three songs are under average. I also learned that even vocals that I like can grate on me a bit. I will look forward to their next try but for now this album was a pass for me. [usrlist...

If you have never read the key for my ratings below please do so one time. I feel my ratings are tougher than my peers. Also Check my last.fm link to see how compatible our music tasts are. So, I have to say I was struggling with this album at first but I thought it rallied a bit at the end. I reviewed 5 instrumental albums today and I'm thankful that this was not another instrumental. The vocals are a bit raw, so I was wondering if I should be careful what I wish for. The album started out a bit like a to hard version of Mars Volta or...
Mark’s Quick Reviews: Gaillion’s – Renewal and Release0 (0)
If you have never read the key for my ratings below please do so one time. I feel my ratings are tougher than my peers. Also Check my last.fm link to see how compatible our music tasts are. So this is my first time listening to Gaillion a self described power trio, formed in Avon, CT. I have to say its quite good. This is a 5 song EP featuring the brand new single, "The Focal Point”, as well as updated mixes of the four previously available singles. I think the new track is my favorite so I have it below for you to request. [usrlist...
