METAEPITOME

Metaepitome may not be a masterpiece but surely is a truly enjoyable album from the beginning to the end with no real weak point and several moments of great music. The technique of the musicians is without any doubt of high level (as evidenced by the remarkable guitar solo in "Point of View"). Its main stream is neoprogressive but with several heavy/rock insertions that give the melodic lines power and energy. There is no particular piece that shines over the others in my opinion, but all the tracks maintain on a very good level, even if the musical line of the closing one ("Dawn") actually seems to extend a little bit beyond what is due. This album definitely deserves 4 full stars.
