5.0 out of 5 stars Metal Delight, May 2, 2007

This review is from: Melancholy Beast (Audio CD)

I think i nutted after hearing track 3. I have longed for a metal effort that had some reminisce of 80's metal (not talking hair band B.S.). This album combines the 80's metal effort with a later proggressive sound. Lance Kings vocals and style bring to mind QueensRyche G. Tate. The riffs throught out the album are bone crunching and the solo's are amazing. I not one that cares for keyboards but they are incorprated perfectly within the music. If your a fan of Queensryche, Iron Maiden...ect you won't be disappointed.

Man. In the future I'm going to quit my job and just follow Lance King around. He and Rob Rock formerly of Impellitteri and now solo have got be my faves as singers go right now. Pyramaze is in one word, tight. Power/prog to the nth degree with great guitars, drumming and bass keeping everyone dialed in and then the vox. Man, Lance can sing. I only gave it four stars 'cause I'm afraid to give debuts like this a five and then have them come out with an even better album. Love it.

5.0 out of 5 stars power-prog that has stood the test of time, October 3, 2004

By

a proghead "snap" (United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Melancholy Beast (Audio CD)

I've updated my review. In the original I said that they sound "like a fully realized version of Queensryche". However now knowing better I would say that this CD is a fully realized version of Lance King. He was a great singer on Balance of Power, but this CD is the best match for his talent, from the swooning introspective ballad "Until We Fade Away", to the powerful rockers "Mighty Abyss" or "Legend". Lance has sang with many other bands (Empire, Defyance, Warmachine, Shining Star, Avian, etc.) This CD is a little more complex/prog oriented than their power-driven 'Bone Carver' CD. This is essential prog metal for anybody's collection.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Modern Power Metal
Pyramaze is consistently good. I'd start with this disc and move forward if you like what you hear. Good, clean, heavy, melodic power metal is what you get. Read more
