This Norwegian prog metal band has been going since 1995 so they do know what to do and what they want to achieve. Their new fifth studio album has gathered all the elements of their previous works and blended them nicely along with their influences from acts like: Dream Theater, Symphony X, Nevermore, Shadow Gallery, Circus Maximus, In Flames and so forth.
Apart from the technical side, the guys they have added various strong melodies to all of their songs. At times they approach prog power metal more straightforwardly but without leaving the hooks aside. That’s what strikes you first when you play this album. The sound is quite tight & very heavy. A very good job has been done on the song arrangements as well.

Echotime is an inimitable case. The band has been active since 2002 under the name Echovertime, as a cover band and their main purpose was to give various live gigs. In 2011, the guys decided to go a step further to compose original music and Echotime was born. Again they chose to go their own way, so they made this concept album which tells a story that takes place in an imaginary world and in a few words, it places emphasis on the protagonist Daniel Antony, a chemistry researcher, who tries to create something that will help the people of his town, Leadtown, as well as the entire world. Finally, he manages to create “Genuine”, a particle with extraordinary effects that could aid all humanity… but his troubles have just begun.
