 The center of gravity of the album leans a bit too much on Anderson’s side... stifling the Swedish contribution.

 If you’re fans of The Flower Kings, you’ll find almost nothing of the Scandinavian band, except for brief moments here and there.

This review covers the collaborative album Invention Of Knowledge by Jon Anderson and Roine Stolt. Anderson's iconic vocal style dominates the album, leaving limited space for Stolt's guitar work. While the craftsmanship is good, the album feels somewhat restrained and favors Anderson's vision over a balanced partnership. It's a solid listen for Yes fans but offers less for followers of The Flower Kings. Discover the unique blend of voices in Anderson/Stolt's Invention Of Knowledge—listen now and explore the prog collaboration!

 Morby, one of the best Italian metal singers, unleashes truly remarkable power and reaches piercing high notes.

 "Champion Eternal" stands at quite high levels despite relatively poor production and an overall not very bright sound.

Domine's 1997 album Champion Eternal delivers a raw '80s-inspired power metal experience anchored by Morby's striking vocals. The album's epic melodies and galloping rhythms evoke fantasy themes linked to Elric of Melniboné. Despite modest production, it stands as a major achievement in Italian heavy metal, especially for fans of power and epic metal. Not designed to compete with more grandiose bands, it remains a treasure for those appreciative of classic power metal intensity. Listen to Domine's Champion Eternal and experience classic Italian power metal at its finest!

 The great Joe delivers good material, played skillfully, but one cannot help but notice a certain inconsistency in the appeal of the tracks.

 This album stands out from the rest of his discography, mainly due to the space given to less dynamic and frenzied tracks.

Joe Satriani's 2022 album The Elephants Of Mars offers skillful guitar playing and some fresh atmospheric tracks. The album takes a quieter, more minimal, and experimental approach than usual, resulting in an uneven flow. While some songs stand out with unique moods and pleasant grooves, others lack strong impact. Fans of Satriani’s energetic style might find this less compelling, but it remains worth listening for its tasteful innovations. Listen to The Elephants Of Mars to discover Joe Satriani's quieter, atmospheric side and explore his evolving guitar artistry.
