4 stars If a notree fell on a noman in the noforest it just might make nosound. You've been up all night banging your head to progmetal and need to take the edge off. That's why we've made sol29.

Before I tried it, I'd read about the comparison artists, tried two streaming tracks, sol29 and Idle End, and had to have it. Actually, this one is pretty much a studio solo project of Giancarlo Erra with Alesandro Luci playing bass on three tracks. I've never heard of or heard this/these guys until a few weeks ago and am really liking what I'm hearing. Once again faced with the problem of trying to write about what I am hearing.

The comparisons made to No-Man are spot on. I went on a No-Man binge and collected far more than I should have in a sort span. Of course, you'll have no such problem with Nosound at this stage as the discography is small. I find Giancarlo's vocal style a little easier on the ears than Tim Bowness's, probably due to in part to all the Bowness I have now collected and being a PFM fan for many years (Giancarlo sings in English with an Italian accent).

Anyway, a nice up and coming progressive artist worth checking out if you like the more ambient side of prog. I'll be keeping an eye and ear on the band that has developed.
