THE DREAMS OF MEN

I'm a huge Pallas fan since many years! I have their full discography and in the past few days can't wait for the new album... Although I don't like some 'hard' prog rock bands and prefer symphony prog, Pallas just blow my mind with everyone next album or live recordings!

Now playing for the very first time "The Dreams Of Men" by Pallas:

1. Bringer Of Dreams - amazing opening track ; symphony music meet hard rock tunes and mix in one during around 10min. epic - awesome - 10/10 2. Warriors - after incredible first track came more of this with Pallas trademarks melody line (mix between Prog and AOR) - 9/10 3. Ghost Dancers - start with lovely violin scottish theme the voice gently entre the song and then just follow the one of the best musical development in Pallas history - 10/10 4. Too Close To The Sun - the next epic seems like to be return to their highly successful 80's album "The Sentinel" with amazing keyboards in the middle of the track - 10/10 5. Messiah - agglutinate to the previous track this one change dramaticly music direction to the modern sound with good 'invisible' string and women back vocals in the end - 9/10 6. Northern Star - back to the 'normal' Pallas life with short instrumental ballad and typical Floyd-ish (A Momentary Lapse Of Reason) guitars, so beautiful - 10/10 7. Mr. Wolfe - maybe this is the weakish song in this album; I can't find any good musical idea here except Pallas - 7/10 8. Invincible - another epic separable in two part, first one very powerfull and rock-ish - second one more calm and harmony - 8/10 9. The Last Angel - the final epic start just like a some angel come to see us in the Earth! "I'm searching for heaven. And I see you...". Simply one of the best song in the year! More than just 10/10

All in all in my opinion "The Dreams Of Men" by Pallas is the next 'native gold' in their discography!. Highly recommended album, definitely one of the album of the year to me! Hope to not stay underrated and misplaced in the end of the year....

Long Live Pallas!

Fish and Pallas are the real scottish pride today...
