Good cd - Marco Is Fantastic!,
This review is from: Secret Visions (Audio CD)
I admit I only bought this because Marco Hietala sings two songs on it. The two songs in question, An Eye For An Eye and Speed Of Light, are the best on the album. Brilliant - powerful and fascinating, perfect for Marco's amazing voice. But I was happily surprised that the rest of the cd is also very good, the singer has a good, strong voice and there's some blistering guitar. All the songs are interesting and a bit different. Good, melodic metal. Worth having, even if Marco wasn't on there, I'd say!

"Virtuocity" is the evolution of "Kenziner",
By Nikiforos V. Skoumas - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Secret Visions (Audio CD)
In 1998 a Finnish-American combination emerged by the name of "Kenziner". A very promising outfit at the time, "Kenziner" elevated the vision of guitar player Jarno Keskinen who effectively attempted to take all known axioms of neoclassical metal and place them into progressive metal surroundings. The band also featured the incomparable performances of American singer Stephen Frederick.
After two albums the band disbanded, Keskinen changed his name to Jaron Sebastian Raven and put together "Virtuocity" in 2001, a totally Finnish band but just the same sound wise to "Kenziner". If you have heard Jaron's music before you can be sure what to expect; the truth and the matter is that when one decides to specialize music ("progressive neoclassical metal" in this case) creative borders become extremely narrow while repetition is, after a certain point, inevitable. "Virtuocity" is unfortunately no exception; you get nothing new from Jarno here, riffs, melodies and drum patterns are very familiar to his previous works while vocalist P.J. Goodman fails to deliver the power, atmosphere and overall originality of Stephen Frederick. If all you need is more of the same, then consider this as a five out of five. Still if you expect the band's creative levels to have risen to new territories then "Virtuocity" will fall short to your expectations.
