From Progarchives.com, the ultimate progressive rock music website
This group took me by surprise.Appearing out of Canada in late 2016, Pareidolon unleashed their debut album on Bandcamp in January of 2107. It immediately catches my attention with it's complex but tight compositions, which use a wide range of musical colors.
From the opening dissonant chord in "Abducted!" which turns into a powerful rocker, into the airy moodiness of "The Tunnel", and all the way through to the heavy epic, "Behind The Glass", Pareidolon successfully uses their dual male and female vocalists and their exceptional instrumentalists (all graduates of Selkirk College's Contemporary Music and Technology program) to produce a masterful blend of progressive styles, with a sound of their own and a nod to the past.
I hear nods to classics like Camel and the like, as well as hints of later Opeth and Haken.
This might be one to look for in the list of top albums of the year.
