CONSORTIUM PROJECT III: TERRA INCOGNITA (THE UNDISCOVERED WORLD)

CONSORTIUM PROJECT is the musical fruit of the brain of a very,very talented and,in my opinion,unjustly underrated musician called IAN PARRY!He has an excellent voice and is known especially because his involvement in the excellent prog metal band ELEGY-now dismbanded,unfortunatelly!!He made some excellent albums with this Dutch combo- MANIFESTATION OF FEAR-is a little masterpiece-a concept album of a very high quality!Now,it seems that IAN has finally found his way with CONSORTIUN PROJECT-a very ambitious musical propject where Ian is pushing his creative limits to the prog metal terrotory with each album!It's difficult to say which CONSORTIUM PROJECT albums is the best,because all have a great level of technicity, and musicality-you get exactly what you expect and you are never dissapointed with any new CP album!That's the same situation with this third opus-a very enjoyable and likeble journey in IAN PARRY'S universe.TERRA INCOGNITA ssems to be a true all star project-just look at the list of the impressive musicians involved in the project and you'll realise that it's impossible to have a weak album with so many big names on it!Musically speaking -it reminds a little about ELEGY-but it's more bombastic-the keyboards have a very important role in this music!Excellent addition in the collection of any prog metal lover and the prove thet an excellent voice and a good composer can offer excellent music to the prog metal amateurs,without any compromise!4,5 STARS and congratulations!
