This review is from: Wetwired (Audio CD)

This is the debut album from the Italian band Icycore. If you like Queensryche-Dream Theater-Savatage you will love these guys (and gal). Not content to debut a collection of songs that make up an album this ambitious band debuts with a concept album! A story about a man, disillusioned with his mortal life seeks to have his soul "uploaded" to the internet. IMHO, the music is on par with Queensryche's Operation: Mindcrime. The storyline on par with Savatage. Valerio's voice has some similarities to Dream Theater's James LaBrie, but I think Valerio demonstrates a broader range of styles ranging from soaring clear vocals to deep growls and everything in between. Besides excellent musicianship the production is excellent. Everytime I listen to this CD on headphones I hear more and more new sounds. Any Power Prog fan that is looking for something new and cool to listen to needs this CD. You can also go to their web site www.icycore.com and listen to some MP3's and read the lyrics and story.
