California has proven over the years since the 80's of it's involvement in the prog-metal genre with a plethora of quality bands despite most of them have come and gone over the years from the Bay Area and surrounding communities.This four-piece,not quite as heavy as your Exodus and Testament types,but good quality music in the vein of Dream Theater meets Styx and Yes.Stephen Green's vocals on this are powerful(somewhat like Europe) and fit well with a musically sound and talented unit. 11 tracks provided and recommended listening;my only gripe is why the U.S. labels can't sign bands like these even though we know how to answer that question with the trendy public and overhyped media.Adrenaline Records to me is a serious label with serious ideas and devoted to signing quality metal/hard rock bands.
