Review:

Dark Angel is the second album from The Reasoning, a ‘prog’ rock band from Wales. I have put inverted commas around ‘prog’ because the tag normally attached to them does not fully describe their music. There are no widdly solos or weird time signatures, but melodic rock songs that should appeal to a very wide audience. ****

Featuring 3 lead singers, the folkish Rachel Cohen (ex Karnataka), Dylan Thompsons’s rock, and Gareth Jones ballad, this just about sums up their range. The album ranges from the gothic rock of ‘Dark Angel’, to the metal of ‘Call Me God’, to the radio friendly ‘Breaking the 4th Wall’. ****

With the right push this band could become massive; they have the look, the songs and the ability. 9 out of 10
