SETTINGS FOR A DRAMA

This is a disks in that I have the clear sensation that the band would have potential to accomplish something better and more creative, mainly in what it concerns to the arrangements. In my opinion, this is the case of this first work of the Italian band EDERA "Settings is to Drama." Sincerely the music are "filled" of obvious rhythmic sequences that are easily found in the neo-prog, especially in those that present passages that "invoke" an approach with the prog-metal, which indicates a 'fall" in the temptation of use pre-established formats . Besides, there is a tendency of simulating with the keyboards a section of strings (violin ,cellos, etc..)...unlike of create another musical atmosphere that combines better with the already mentioned rhythms. Also as "sin", there is the fact of the English lyrics, , what harms Valerio Valentin's performance. But, it fits to emphasize, that the disk presents some beautiful moments of acoustic-piano, however it is not enough to "save" the disk. My rate is 2 stars.
