EMBRACE THE SILENCE

If you know Vanishing Point from their other two albuns you'll be very surprised when listen to this one. In the first 10 seconds you will find such a huge difference of production and recording from the others. They made a good use of the structure they had this time. The best work of the band's carreer. Again the highest point of the album is the voice of the vocalist Silvio Massaro, his voice is very deep and unique, i became a fan of his. Another highlight is the keyboard work. It sounds majestic and beautiful, although the band don't make use of big solo spots and excessive virtuosity, what makes the album more direct and intense. The songwriting is as intense as the instrumental part is, with lyrics approaching inner feelings and life hardships. I suggest this for fans of Dream Theater, Riverside and Ark fans the most but if you want to listen good music this will fill your needs.
