In 2011 this Italian band released its debut album 'Symmetrical', an album I'm not familiar with, so I can't compare this new one with it. What I hear on this album is very o.k. A mix of prog and heavy with variable songs. Sometimes with heavy riffs like in the opening track, but also rather balladesk songs like "It's so Late", which has a guest appearance of Michele Luppi (Secret Sphere, Vision Divine). Also "Another Time" is a soft song, which has some Dream Theater influences. Fortunately the track "Fortune and Pain" is again a more up-tempo track with heavy guitar work and nice keyboard parts. "The New Line of Time" is a softer song, but due to the good vocals easy to listen to. My personal favorite is the last song. Probably because it is the heaviest track on the album, a song with aggressive riffs, driving keys and very solid drumming. Perhaps not the most original progressive metal band, but surely one with good songs and a good balance between the heavier and the softer songs. I don't think there will be any prog metal fan disliking Odd Dimension's second album. | ||||||||||||||||||
