SPECIAL COLLABORATOR Honorary Collaborator
3 stars Speechless hailed from Atlanta, Georgia and started back in 2004 originally as a Kansas cover band.One of the group's members, guitarist Sean Tonar, was also one of the founders of the Progressiveears internet database and forum.The rest of the crew were drummer Derik Rinehart, bassist Paul Rusek and keyboardist Robbie Hamil.By 2006 the band had prepared nine self-written compositions and offered them under the title ''Time out of mind'' on their own Out of Mind Music label.

With an all instrumental variety Speechless delivered quirky, technical yet melodic instrumental Progressive Rock with strong HAPPY THE MAN influences and sounding a lot like Canadian veterans NATHAN MAHL.Their music was rich, virtuosic and atmospheric, relying on good interplays and serious rhythmic parts with a Fusion vibe, which often led to breaks into more symphonic and melodious soundscapes with emotional guitar soloing and grandiose keyboards.While Tonar appeared to be the leading force of a pretty guitar-oriented album, there was also room for some great keyboard instrumentals for Hamil, led by his bombastic piano lines, old school organ and modern synthesizers.The atmosphere of the album has also strong links with NATHAN MAHL, as the material ranges from dramatic offerings and professional musicianship to pleasant tunes and light, symphonic textures.Very balanced work and band, which provided well-crafted music with evident connections to the 70's, refined in a contemporary package.

First and last album for this talented American act.Good US Symphonic/Fusion along the lines of HAPPY THE MAN and MAELSTROM.Warmly recommended.

4 stars "Time Out Of Mind" is the 2006 debut album from the Atlanta-based all-instrumental quartet known as Speechless. This is very good rock guitar-oriented symphonic prog/jazz fusion with similarities to other American bands like 4Front, Bad Dog U, Helmet of Gnats, Syzygy, and Parallel Mind (not t ... (read more)
