Vanishing point come
from the distand to Europe land of
Australia and "Embrace the Silence"
is their 3rd effort to make a name
for themselves worldwide. From the
very first notes someone can easily
understand that their main target
is the European market.
79+ minutes of melodic
power metal, with mid to fast tempo
songs and the addition of some ballads.
The artwork and the production can
be considered as the band's strong
assets, as well as the whole performance
of the quintet. The only drawback
is the duration of the cd, which combined
with the fact that some songs are
more mediocre than the majority of
the compositions, makes you a bit
tired and drops the rating, together
with the good general picture you
get out of "Embrace the Silence".That
doesn't necessarily mean you should
delete it from your buying list whatsoever.
There are some great moments, marvelous
compositions and performances that'll
make you repeat the spin over and
over. It really deserves your attention
and money eventually.
Bottom-line:
Embrace IS the album that will earn
them some points and make their name
more known in the metal industry worldwide.
I have the feeling that something
big will come this way very soon.
Until then... |
