IN THE MIRROR OF RECONCILIATION

Swedish band DAYS OF ASHES is a project that has been in development for a number of years. However it didn't officially form as a band unit 2013 or thereabouts. "In the Mirror of Reconciliation" is their debut album, and was self-released in 2014.

Suitably quirky compositions revolving around guitar and keyboard combinations with powerful, dramatic lead vocals on top is the name of the game here, and with an emotionally laden concept explored further emphasizing the dramatic and emotional nature of this production. Those who enjoy '90s progressive metal in general and the style of music explored by Dream Theater around 1992 in particular should find this debut album by Days Of Ashes to be interesting, or at least one worth taking note of.
