Excellent Service

Normally are instrumental albums - like this first solo work of the Nevermore guitarist - only to enjoy by musicians and experienced theoreticians. Jeff Loomis however makes so emotional solos, that he ingeniously compensates for Warrel Danes singing.

    Departure

by Björn Thorsten Jaschinski (21.07.2008) If Warrel Dane hadn’t talked so much about the new Nevermore material in an interview concerning his solo activities, you would have had reason to doubt a further existence of this Seattle institution. With catchy, melancholic songs, vocal artist Dane focuses on the part a bit disregarded in his main band - and blond axeman Jeff Loomis announces he’s releasing an instrumental album. But at least one track, "Shouting fire at a funeral" features - apart from excessive soli and the complex song structure you expected - a strange and high-pitched singing voice not sticking to the usual verse/chorus scheme, though. "Opulent maelstrom" - the name’s the motto: shredding and epic-ecstatic guitar work at its best. Loomis focuses on emotional melodies - and takes the foot off the gas in "Azure", for example -, so the demonstrations of his technical prowess are not only material for the connoisseur. With his well-balanced and tough production, Neil Kernon shows Loomis as a star, but not as an inconsiderate egotist.
