AS THE WORLD

Echoly is one of the most intresting and original progressive rock bands ever in last 20 years not only from american land but in general aswell. Delivering the kind of prog that almost every fan of the genre can appreciate and love, Echolyn manage to release some respectable albums full of potential right from the start. The band seams to be influenced by legends such as Gentle Giant, but for sore they have their own twists. The musicianship of this third album from 1995 named As the world is outstanding, memorable passages, inventive duels between musicians, intricate and complex prog. This is the first Echolyn album I was aware of in 1998, since then I begun to love them more and more. I can trace a piece to be the best from here, all are very strong powerfull arrangements, complex and complicated prog is all about here. Each instrument shines here, delivering top notch performance. I like it a lot, maybe among their best as far as I'm concerned. 4 stars easy.
