Review:

DThis is a Swiss band that was rooted in 2001, the prime mover is JP Schenk, an autodidact who sings and plays keyboards, drums and bass synthesizer. The other members on this fourth studio-album (2009) are Roger Burri (acoustic - and electic guitars) and Oliver Guenat (guitars). - The 8 tracks on this new album sound melodic and modern and are very tastefully arranged: lots of shifting moods (echoes of mainly Pink Floyd but also Rush and Hawkwind), dynamics and fine musical ideas, a varied keyboard layering (from flashy synthesizers and bombastic church – and Hammond organ to wonderful Mellotron waves and psychedelic organ) and many strong, often moving guitar solos (obvious Gilmourian undertones and loaded with emotion). The English vocals are not bad but lack a bit emotion and expression. However, this hardly harms the music, I am sure that Metamorphosis their modern and varied progrock will please a lot of progheads.
