AYREON "the source" cd, 2017
not mine but borrowed from a work colleague...
double disc set, listened to the first disc only at this stage...
prog-rock/prog-metal band...
eleven lead vocalists on here including James LaBrie (dream theater), Tobias Sammet (avantasia) and Floor Jansen (nightwish), the others i am not aware of...
being Prog it is a concept album (all 2 discs and 90 minutes)...
something to do with humanoids on a distant planet giving too much power to the AI's...
was a bit disappointed with the first track but thankfully it got better from there...
theres some metal, orchestrations and folky moments contained within and i must admit i prefer the quieter times overall...
so far pretty good and looking forward to hearing the second disc over the next few days as i take a break from 2022 releases and my own collection.
I LIKE THIS ALBUM
fave from one listen of disc one:
"BTO....Bachman,Turner,Overweight
They were big in the 70s....for five minutes,on a Saturday,after lunch..." - Me 2014.
