REBIRTH

Solo albums by instrumentalists can be a crossbreed between fish and birds. In this case, it is. This album can be sharply divided into two parts. One part where Alberto Rigoni proves he can play his bass in a quirky solo jazz like piece and one part where he joins in as a part of a band. Alberto Rigoni is helped out on this album by a star studded team too. Gavin Harrison and Michael Manring is the most knowns here of the stars. The musicianship is great on the jazzy parts here and the music is good too.

For some reasons, there are also some prog metal songs here at the end of the album with a full band too. That as a big, massive contrast to the first part of the album. The quality drops on these prog metal bits. I thought Alberto had got his fill of progressive metal in Twinspirits, but I have been proven wrong.

Hence, this album is a bit schizo in it's form. This type of crossover will not impress either the jazz or the prog metal fraternity. I doubt many want to eat a fish which is covered in feathers.

Hence, the music is a strong two stars and the musicianship is a strong three stars. I end up on three stars.

3 stars
