Description/Reviews
“Changes” warms things up with some amazing string bending by Religa. It is a fusion filled track with elements of rock and jazz intersecting and showing the guitar players talents in the most complex way possible. When “Highway Traffic” kicks in it immediately reminds you of something Joe Satriani would do in one of his legendary sessions (think “Surfing with the Alien”). It is not a leisurely walk in the park and it really does sound like frenetic highway traffic - high speed madness with four lanes of everyone jockeying for position. It is one the fastest moving high energy tracks on the album. Then to show you even more diversity he takes you on a “Journey” by building soundscapes with stinging leads on top of each other. It is a classic rock ballad cooked to perfection instrumental style. The song builds to a tremendous crescendo then as soon as you think it has hit its apex he switches gears and slows things down and a light keyboard enters the picture making it sound like an entirely different track. Then once that segment is complete it segues right back into a rising mix of sounds then it slows down once again and fades off into the distance. The track covers a lot of ground and the time changes are simply amazing.
