From: London, UK
Sounds like: Progressive Rock/Metal
The opener "Kyrie Eleison" is a minute and a half intro instrumental track that showcases the stellar guitar work. The title track "Passing Into Time" is next and it picks up the pace nicely with some steady grit. The track marches forward with head banging appeal as well as melodies that are easy to sing along to. "Song of the Whimsical Dreamer" glides along effortlessly with a solid Progressive Rock radio sound. It's super catchy and brings to mind Rush. "A Midsummer Night's Dream" off the bat features a tremendous guitar solo that sets the time early. The six minute long track takes you on a melodic journey of what the band is all about with its riffs and melodies. "Embrace The Lost Horizon" cranks things up a bit. The track is faster paced and really hits on all cylinders. The Iron Maiden vibes come shining through as the melodies and riffs hit their full stride. "Be The Change" is a nice ballad to pull at the heartstrings at the listener. It's a nice change of pace and shows off pure emotion from the band. "On High Seas" keeps things at a more timid pace. The ballad is methodical in its approach and has tons of depth. "A Clarion Call To Revolution" blasts right back into the heavier tones. The upbeat track will get the listener toe tapping and singing along in no time. The closing track "Friends of Mine" wraps up the album nicely with its tight Progressive Rock sound. The album has a lot to like for fans of the genre and shouldn't be missed.
Verdict:
The Multitude looks to make their mark in the Progressive Rock genre with their newest album.
