In The Materium

James Glading

Sinfomusic.net CD Review, With good bonding sessions musicians usually give excellent results in the form of discs impeccably designed and executed. The case of Materium is exactly this , people who were tired of giving everything to others, decide to put all their talents to their own project. The band was born in the southern United States, home to artists with character and artistic power , a group that is at ease with the progressive amorphous structures and decides to translate it into this tremendous In The Materium CD. Frank D' Angelo ( Guitars and Vocals ) , Stephen Santana ( Bass, Lead Vocals ) are the creators of this new gadget full of good feelings , adding to them Francisco Cortina on keyboards and Jim Glading on Drums with recording credit to George Miller. The album is definitely a demonstration of balance between two opposite poles , brute force and finesse , a union that has blunt details, melodies , rhythmic and sonic force power .

1st Review “The week I was going to write a review of Materium's Debut record, was the same week I began listening to the new Dream Theater album. At first I thought this would color my perceptions unfairly, (Because, you know Dream Theater is freakin' Dream Theater) However Materium provided a healthy dose of the prog I love and some pleasant surprises. The opening riff in seven instantly put a smile on my face and the dark and brooding feel of the production is really cool. In contrast to DTs Thrash metal-based approach, Materium Makes generous use of cleaner guitars and ambient textures. While there's plenty of detuned heaviness, The guitar work displays influences ranging from Holdsworthian legato leads to semi-clean playing reminiscent of late 80s Killing Joke. A great example of one such killer riff is the tune Not Your Enemy. The guitar part and the chorus have been running through my head a lot lately, which is the mark of a good song.
