By Wayne Klinger A rare occasion to get bands from Iowa but there are a few out there and this 5-piece is a very tight prog-metal unit in the musical field of Kamelot,Iron Maiden,Queensryche and Fates Warning with leads touching a bit on the neo-classical theme. What seperates the band from being "the usual" is the songwriting skills they present to the listener with catchy timings and an interaction between melodies,heavy riffs and moodful interludes on a nice listening time of 49½ minutes. These guys,if not already booked,would be a nice accompaniment for the Powermad Festival this year. http://www.defyance.com © 2001, BBHrdRpt
