Xerosync -
4DOT8 (
U.S.A. - 2023)
Éste es un álbum atípico : no en cuanto a la música sino en lo que compete a la presentación del mismo. En la lista de reproducción de Youtube se observa que la mayoría de las pistas van acompañadas de videos extractados de la serie
Juego de Tronos. Leyendo algunas declaraciones de los autores, mencionan que han sincronizado las secuencias fílmicas con las letras y ritmos de sus canciones. Sin dudas una aventura muy especial por parte de los dueños del proyecto : John Tuohy y Jake Siberon, ambos multi-instrumentistas e integrantes de una banda estadounidense llamada Mile Marker Zero (a la que nunca escuché, obviamente).
¨4DOT8¨ es su
disco debut y ambos músicos apostaron fuerte en esta entrega : el trabajo trae
12 temas y dura aproximadamente 1 hora. Dentro de un progresivo que se nutre del sinfónico, del math, y con líneas melódicas bien logradas, el ejemplar se hace
agradable y disfrutable. Dada su duración tiene mucho material para descubrir y no se agota fácilmente. Para los fans del prog bien hecho (y para los fans de Game of Thrones) es
muy recomendable.
In English click on SpoilerThis is an atypical album: not in terms of music but in terms of its presentation. In the YouTube playlist it is observed that most of the tracks are accompanied by videos extracted from the Game of Thrones series. Reading some statements from the authors, they mention that they have synchronized the film sequences with the lyrics and rhythms of their songs. Undoubtedly a very special adventure on the part of the owners of the project: John Tuohy and Jake Siberon, both multi-instrumentalists and members of an American band called Mile Marker Zero (which I never listened to, obviously). ¨4DOT8¨ is their debut album and both musicians bet heavily on this release : the work brings 12 tracks and lasts about 1 hour. Within a progressive that is nourished by symphonic and math, and with melodic lines well achieved, the copy becomes pleasant and enjoyable. Given its duration, it has a lot of material to discover and does not run out easily. For fans of well-made prog (and for fans of Game of Thrones) it is highly recommended.
