Album Description

The albums of ETERNITY X present a lot more than just one of the new Progressive heavy-metal editions, in a recently quite crowded genre (Both quantitatively and qualitatively). Each of them present a subtle blend of symphonic elements, powerful keyboards, fabulous guitar solos and modern rhythms. The first one called “Once Upon A Dream” (1991), the concept that presents the twelve astrological signs “Zodiac” (1993) and the third album “Mind Games” (1995) show a melodical heavy metal band that is only very little marked by the both symphonic and Progressive rock influences that would be perceptible on the following one with the arrival of a full-time keyboardist. It has to be said that “The Edge” (1997) is an absolute masterpiece. During both delicate or more energetic tracks, this album proves to be aggressive in its musical content, even though it respects at the same time the ears with very elaborate melodical lines. It can remind of a meeting between SHADOW GALLERY and DREAM THEATER (Perfect instrumental technique, melodical beauty, varied vocals that alternate with great success aggressive and bursting moments…). The beauty of this major works in this style will seduce both Progressive rock and heavy-metal fans as well as those who appreciate mature and ardent rock music. The moving and expressive texts, helped by the extraordinary aesthetic and always perfect vocals by Keith SUDANO (Let's mention the vocal similarities with Geddy LEE, Michael SADLER, Mike BAKER and James LaBRIE, or even Tommy ERIKSSON… Of AGENESS !) draw a painting of musical colours that describe the characters from the inside and beyond the edge of eternity...

5 out of 5 stars Wow.......2006-05-08

I believe Mind Games stands on it's own. It is a moving album with some heavy subject material. Eulogy is the song I want played at my funeral and my baby was conceived while "Endless Journey" played in the background. This CD holds it's own right as a masterpiece. it should not be compared to their 1997 album "The Edge" nor their 1993 release "Zodiac." These two album are unlike each other and unlike MG. ETX moves me like no other band...I urge you to get this album.
