User Album Review
I’ve always been enamored with Stensland’s guitar prowess and he has a lot of impressive ideas scattered throughout the material here. He’s adept at crafting driving riffs that are equal parts heavy and proggy. His solo-work is used very sparingly, making it all the more effective when it pops up. His vocals can be a love or hate proposition, and though he’s been accused of imitating Warrel Dane too closely, he seems more his own person here. He’s backed by an uber talented backline in bassist Erik Mortensen and Tor Atle Andersen on drums. Together the trio flex quite the powerful musical muscle and you’d swear there were 5 or more folks in the band. If they’d just tightened up the writing a bit, this thing would be a smoke show of heavy prog-power.
As it stands, Where Echoes Gather is a solid, technically impressive outing fans of prog-power should enjoy. I doubt this release will help Communic garner the respect they deserve, but at this point they’ve probably accepted their place in the metal pecking order and do it for the love of music. If you haven’t heard these guys before, definitely check them out. Lots of quality music to be found, here and in their back catalog.
