Artension - Machine (2000) [Japanese Ed.]

Posted By: Andi_Deris

Date: Dec. 26, 2012

Artension's "Machine" marks the group's return to the heavy progressive sound of "Phoenix Rising" and once again showcases the musical virtuosity of founders Vitalij Kuprij, Roger Staffelbach and John West. Intense neo-classical ensemble sections and solo trade-offs augment some of the best progressive metal song writing in the genre.
