Artist: PATHOSRAY
Album: "SUNLESS SKIES (CD)"

Year: 2009
Media type: CD

Pathosray definitely don't sound like an Italian band. Which is good - that lets you get rid of the prejudices some people have with bands from there: this combo proves impressively that you don't necessarily have to live up to the musical clichй of your home country. Pathosray rather sound innovative and confident, having devoted themselves to Metal's biggest challenge, Progressive Metal. And the blokes give us their best, offering us a clever mixture of melodies, technical prowess, and (not too intense, though) symphonic elements. I'd say their closest neighbours are Dream Theater, Symphony X, and Pagan`s Mind. The strong, catchy melodies in combination with a certain stately heaviness on this album really win you over, with tracks such as "Poltergeist", "Behind the shadows" or "Aurora" as party boosters. Also a plus: the songs are not too pomp-laden, yet very exciting. A great sophomore album.
