Appeal To Authority – Dead Inside (Track Review)

I press the Play button, and after a short intro, at 0:09, a complex but cool guitar riff leads the orchestration of the song and places me in the heart and mind of the composer(s), who intend to blow my mind off! This band unleashes a Prog Metal masterpiece inspired by Dream Theater and the early 2000s era of Fates Warning, which I really admire as a listener. The orchestration is crazy (due to the amount of time signatures, riffs, changes, etc.) and smart as well, because every part of the song is placed in a suitable position on the audio mix. This leads to a smooth musical and mood transition for the listener, who becomes familiar with the band and its artistic vision. “Nothing left to say”… as Fates Warning used to sing, if you care about talented Prog Metal then it’s worth checking out this Prog band and investing your time in probably attending their concerts!
