This album rocks. This album rocks better live.
The engineer had some clout on this album that's for sure. But all I can say for the one star loss is the textural aspect of the recording. Perhaps Bill Laswell should handle the engineering of the next Planet X album.Too much Steve Vai influence behind the desk? For some that's not a bad thing, but if your hooking in from the prog side of the fence you may be dissapointed purley from a textural point of view... But hey this is 2002 I'm suprised that these musicians exist. They can actually play, for Australia thats a wake up call.

This cd is a fairly good one. If you've heard the first planet x album and liked it, you'll find this cd even better. Its all instrumental and for the most part of the album good stuff, although some songs don't seem to go anywhere. Still, its a good release and well worth checking out!

Undaunted Kings of the Universe
14 July 2000
Format:Audio CD
This album is an infernal machine, a time bomb in your stereo just waiting for a virtuosic detonation. The guitar playing is a unique blend of hybrid picking, position shifting, scale-combining, and string-skipping at supreme quality. Virgil Donati(drummer)is undoubtly one of the few drummers in the business with the alacrity of a cheetah on the double bass pedal, and the skilled hands of a stonemason. As for Derek Sherinian(former Dream Theater keyboardist), his odd time signatures and warm tones complete the trinity of these incomparable musicians. This is a classic for any Macalpine/Donati fans, and any connoisseur of technical/avante-garde music.

4 and 1/2 Stars
14 Jan 2001
Format:Audio CD
Planet X's Universe is a truly outstanding progressive metal instrumental effort. Tony MacAlpine's heavy riffing and throwback shredding bode well with Derek Sherinian's typical stellar synth playing. Drummer Virgil Donati also displays his considerable chops and has solo writing credits for two of the songs. One of them, Dog Boots, is in many ways the album's standout tracks. It's riff-heavy intro is quickly punctuated by the incoming keyboards with a nice melody. It gets stuck in my head a lot. I think it would be a good song to use in a film. Other standout tracks include Clonus, Bitch, King of the Universe, Pods of Trance, and 2116. My only complaint about the album is that there isn't that much actual variety. Most of the songs have the same basic sound. Still, this is a worthwhile purpose for fans of heavy instrumental music or of any of the musicians involved.

Heavy, heavy, heavy
25 Jan 2001
Format:Audio CD
This is a joint venture of Derek Sherinian (keys), Tony McAlpine (guitar), and Virgil Donati (drums). If you know the solo album "Planet X" of former Dream Theater member Derek Sherinian, you know at least the musical category of this album - except that it's got more heavy guitars on it, thanks to Tony McAlpine. This album is so loud, heavy, dissonant, dense, depressive, and ear-hurting, that it's a real joy to listen to it. Stylistically, the music is probably a mixture of progmetal and fusion. Anyway you might name it, it's a breath-taking tour-de-force for your ears. Not for the faint-hearted!
