49th Art Rock Show: Night to Day

Time Collapse is een Griekse prog rockband uit Athene. Aan hun debutalbum hebben ze drie jaar gewerkt en het klinkt dan ook bijzonder goed.

MBlade van Musipedia of Metal: “Another band from Athens but unlike Divine Element, Time Collapse take a much more melodic sound, there is metal but it’s used to augment the atmospheric progressive rock and make soundscapes that have their influence in the darker themes of Tool, King Crimson and Porcupine Tree, the complex drum patterns of Babis that drive Time Bound and Time Collapse are from the Danny Carey bag of tricks poly rhythmic and lead instrument in their own right, when paired with the low bass of Giannis it gives the record chunky riffs as the guitars of Nikos and Christos float over top with the melodic dexterity of Alex Lifeson and Robert Fripp.

It’s one of those albums where the songs blend into one and other taking the listener on a audio journey through the band’s 3 years of work. Stavros is like a glue holding the soundscapes in place with his synths and keys as Christos’ deep vocals resonate like Jonas Renske or Maynard himself, especially on the monumental title track which also features some clarinet to give a more rounded sound. The album culminates in the 3 part Messiah Complex suite which ends the album with both the most progressive and heaviest material. Night To Day is well worth the three years it’s taken to make, an ideal record if you, like me, enjoy Tool, Porcupine Tree et al and as an extra bonus it’s available as a name your price album on the bands bandcamp.”
