 Metal transforms, imprinting its mark even on classical music, even on philosophy, and why not, on history.

 Pentekonter is worth the price of the entire album.

Marshall's Pages From The Past: Tome I is a metal album rich in cultural and historical themes. It combines rebellion, myth, and history through imaginative compositions and cinematic soundscapes. The album stands out with unique instrumentation like violin bows and soprano vocals. It's a well-produced and ambitious project that elevates metal beyond its traditional boundaries. Listen to Marshall's Pages From The Past: Tome I and experience a metal journey through history and culture.

 If it is true that technology has a price, what Vai pays is high: warmth and emotion.

 'Lotus Feet' ... a poignant, moving piece, the guitar speaks, cries, reverberates with emotion, a true gem embedded in an album not quite very successful.

Steve Vai's Reel Illusion: Reflection showcases his impeccable guitar skills and experimental approach, though sometimes overindulgent with effects. The album is a concept piece, part of a trilogy, which challenges listeners. Vocal experiments are mixed in quality, but the emotional ballad 'Lotus Feet' is a highlight that shines through. Overall, the album is recommended for fans despite its flaws. Listen to Steve Vai’s Reel Illusion to experience virtuosic guitar playing and explore his bold, experimental soundscapes.
