Metamorphosis Song Download 1 Hour

This album is quite technical and serious. The synth sounds stray from the typical sound of analogs and into a more serious tone. I must give Matt Guillory credit for thegreat selection of synths he used on this album. The vocals deserve much credit too. Erik Rosvold's voice is perfect for this album. It'scalm, dramatic, and intense. Rosvold shows some range, but stays in a safe alto rangethroughout the album. Rosvold picks his spots to sing perfectly never stealing thespotlight from other band members. Guitars are prominent throughout the technical passages. The rythmn guitar of Jasun Tipton is nothing to write home about, but the technique he uses is close to incredible. The finest display of his skill is the insturmental track "A Passage". The song is a guitar duet of well himself. One acoustic rythmn guitar mixed with an electric guitar shreddingover the top of the piece. Really a phoenomenal display of control and speed. Not much to say about the drums and bass other than they are tight. The execution that this band posseses more than makes up for a slight lack of creativity. The album is one again highly techincal, but lacks insturmental catchyness if I am free to use such aterm. The production is good. The keyboards are i commented on earlier are well selected.The vocals are rich and well harmonized. The bass is clear and punchy. The guitars aresomewhat weak. I don't think there were quite enough tracks to capture the full rangeof Tipton's guitars. The drums are somewhat lacking also. The bass drum has morethan enough prescence, but lacks a distinct tone that most drummers usually capture.The production is average. Great in some parts and dissapointing in others. social review comments | Review Permalink

Here is my song by song analysis of this album:1. Eyes of Denial (4:42) - An ok opener, kinda generic, but ok. The song doesn'timpress me, but is ok nevertheless. 3/52. The System Remains (7:22)- Probably my favorite Zero Hour song of all time. Thecombination of technicality, brutality and emotions make this mindblowing andparts of it are almost at breakneck speed. Great song. 5/53. *Rebirth (Bonus Track) (5:49)- Another one of these songs, ok, but not great 3/54. Voice of Reason (8:40)- This song fails to impress me, with its boring technicalthemes, un-emotional shredding. 2/55. *A Passage (Instrumental) (Bonus Track) (2:25)- A short instrumental basedtotally on technicality, what more can I give it? 2/56. Metamorphosis - One of the best Epics in Prog Metal. Filled with technicality andextreme rhythmns as compared to Dream Theater's structured attack to SymphonyX's Symphonic Neo-Classical approach. Think This Dying Soul with Dream Theater,but much more technical and not quite as heavy. 7. *Eyes of Denial (Demo Version) (3:57) - I can't say I like the song or the demo, butthe song is surely better 2/58. *Jaded Eyes (Instrumental) (Demo) (3:29)- A mindblowing instrumental, but withdemo quality...... 3/5This is a good disc. Not that great and not that bad. Overall its a good, solid 3.5album. Highly recommended for fans of Dream Theater, Spiral Architect, Shadow Gallery. social review comments | Review Permalink

Instrumentally, this band is TIGHT! The Tipton brothers are one of the best guitar/bassduo's I've heard in a long time and they really know how to handle their instrumentsand how to use them right. They both show great diversity and always manage to rockout without exaggerating at all, an unfortunately rare case for the prog-metal genrethese days. Their style is calm and knowing but still very heavy and tight. Mike Guydoes a fantastic job here as well with fast but controlled drumming that goes along withthe complex and adventurous song structures extremely well. Guy is a really tightdrummer who seems always ready for a challenge and has a very unique style that fitsZero Hour perfectly. I have to agree with fellow reviewer Vince that vocalist ErikRosvold is absolutely perfect for this band. His voice is like a mix between Russel Allenand James LaBrie, only calmer but still shows a great range and as the rest of theband, this guy knows how to use his instrument (voice that is) well without goingoverboard. The keyboards here (done by Matt Guillory) create most of the extraatmosphere and really push the album up a notch by adding an adventurous andunique style to the album. Overall, this album is a great technical prog-metal album that is very rewarding andunique. Fantastic musicianship and wonderful songwriting makes this a very worthypurchase for any prog-metal fan that likes adventurous, complex and sophisticatedmetal. It has slightly weaker moments but the rest of the music makes up for it.4.5/5 social review comments | Review Permalink

"Eyes Of Denial" opens with synths and lots of atmosphere before a crushing wall of sound arrives a minute in. A calm as vocals come in. Back to the heaviness and Jasun shows his stuff after 3 1/2 minutes. "The System Remains" opens with some heavy instrumental work. The vocals come in with synths and a lot of atmosphere. Great section. Heaviness joins in with piano. Amazing. Themes are repeated. This is such an incredible song. Jasun comes in shredding before 5 minutes followed by a flury of keys before Jasun ends it with another solo. The song continues to shift gears often. "Rebirth" opens with piano as reserved vocals join in. Erik sure can sing as he holds the note before it gets heavier before 2 minutes. Tipton rips it up as drums pound 4 1/2 minutes in. "Voice Of Reason" again sounds so good vocally as heaviness and complexity continue to impress. Love the background synths. Thunderous drums after 5 minutes, a calm follows. Female spoken words after 7 minutes. From 8 minutes to the end is absolutely incredible and emotional with the vocal melodies and synths. "A Passage" is an instrumental that opens with acoustic guitar before the electric guitar joins in. You have to hear this one. "Metamorphosis" is the final track and it's divided into 5 parts. First up is "Descent" a melodic track with great vocals. It's like a stampede to open though. Heaviness comes and goes, but I love the sections inbetween. "Awaken" opens with piano as heavy bass and synths join in, and then guitar. Vocals follow. I really like the guitar lines. "Union" is brighter sounding with piano early. It kicks into gear after 2 1/2 minutes with a barrage of drums. Tipton is busy after 4 1/2 minutes. Sounds like a choir before 5 1/2 minutes. "Solace" opens with a vocal sample of someone yelling emotionally.This is solace ? Haha. "Ascent" is the uplifting closer. They all shine so bright on this final track.This is a great place to start for anyone wanting to check this band out. This one isn't as harsh or metallic as the records that follow. social review comments | Review Permalink

Saturday: A total of six hours of yoga! It was the most challenging day for me, as I didn't eat enough before the afternoon session and had a hard time pushing away pangs of hunger. But it was another awesome playful day of being lovingly pushed. I twisted my body into shapes I didn't know were accessible to me. There were a lot of moments where I felt a light go on with things she said, and pointers she gave. We sweat so much the studio became a steam room (see above pic). By the end of the day my abs felt like oatmeal (I have never done so much core work in my life), my upper back muscles felt like rocks and I had sweat a splashable puddle on my mat, but I felt so, so happy and so grateful. And grateful for the giant dinner I ordered afterwards!

Sunday: A two hour masterclass. We had a lot of fun putting together all the pieces from the days before. One of the things I'm working on in my practice is pressing into handstand, and I was so happy that we worked on that throughout the weekend. I used to think of it like, "Ok, I just need to use my core and upper body", but I realized it's more about using the entire body- the hands pressing down, the arms lifting up, the upper back muscles supporting, the chest pushing away from the mat, the low core lifting up, the legs reaching to the sky.... What a difficult thing to do, but the work - the sweat, the aching muscles, the determination, the concentration, the self-trust - is so rewarding.
