PARALLAXE

Parallaxe from France is a progressive jazz fusion metal band with 2 albums released so far. This band as many from that period and after embrace this style of music after the groundbreaking succes of LTE 1 and 2. Even thy had a style of their own Parallaxe are style quite influnce by bands from this realm. First album issued in 2003 self titled is a good example of complex and complicated pieces, all 6 tracks are good for sure, but overall something is missing, is to much wankary for my taste. The album is all instrumental, the musicians for sure know to handle the instruments very well, but is not enough. Excellent is the guitar parts, Alex Andrini manage to create some spectacular moments, remind me of LTE or other guitarists from this type of music. So, all in all a fairly decent album, with good compositions, but is not a masterpice, at least for my ears. 3 stars
