Description/Reviews
Vital Science is basically going for traditional progressive metal in their music. While they focus on both melody and complexity in the arrangements, their prog is a bit heavier. Think more Symphony X, than Dream Theater. But if you like either of those bands, you will likely enjoy Vital Science.
