FACE THE MUSIC

This is a good album...but not much for art-rock. The only one that could be an art-rocker is 'Fire on High', which represents a Beatlesque kind of song. (Think of 'Strawberry Fields Forever' or 'Revolution #9'.) It almost represents Dante's Inferno in five minutes. Starting with light piano chords (Dark Forest), then there are sounds of opening doors (Gates of Hell), many odd noises (The demons and people yelling.) Then you hear Handel's 'Messiah' (Dante knowing that God is protecting him.), and then it goes into a wild guitar solos (The many levels of Hell). It may sound complicated, but it may have some resemblence.
