JOURNEY INTO THE FOURTH DIMENSION S/T Lion Music LMC1709 (2006)
Featuring Chilean guitarist Jose L del Rio, and the intricate keyboards of Vitralij Kuproj, this is neo classical prog, played at a ridiculous high speed that makes Malmsteen seem backwardly slow.
Some nice tunes, some classical moments, but it all has an intense shred with some power metal bursts.
And the take on Flight Of The Bumblebee is so fast it’s over in seconds - I think you have to be in the 4th dimension to get it.
Nicely done, the neoclassical edge is great, but the shred is severely over done.
