DEAD RECKONING

Here is it, one of most interesting albums out in 2007. I've never listened to Threshold, only 5-6 listens to Subsurface that had not interested me too much. Dead Reckoning is a good album, no doubt. Music has quality and songs are catchy. More heavy metal than progressive, however. It starts with Slipstream, good song, very powerful, as a intro should be ever. Again, This is your life, maybe worst song in the album. Banal and repetetive, at least is not too much long. Elusive and Hollow are great songs, very pleasant time passing with them. And then, the masterpiece, best track in all the record: Pilot in the sky of dreams. Really, really emotional and with a powerful central part. Then three nice and pleasant songs that introduce the outro, another masterpiece, not as Pilot, but still a great song. Well, I decided for a 4 stars. I will dig into previous albums, I'm sure they'll be as good as Dead Reckoning. Good stuff.
