MarcAnthony reviews The Mountains of Madness

The Light Behind
Nice structure - I must say that the bass drum during the piano solo is annoying
and the drums overall are way too frantic for the piece... I like the interaction
between the guitar and piano, however I feel that the song lacks a melodic thread
to keep it together... A good effort, though, well produced, imaginative...

6.5 / 10

The Voyage of Wuphon's Dream
Psyechedelic feel... mixing is rougher here - drums sound very muffled... I like
the movements and the interaction between the guitar - this has a very '70s art rock
flavor to it - reminds me of a Yes tune I heard somewhere before... nice!

7 / 10

The Voyage of Wuphon's Dream Part 2
This has an Iron Maiden (circa 7th son) feel to it - grandiose metal instrumental
with a great deal of movement... I don't care much for the choice of sounds, but
I like the melodies - eerie, yet very fluid... the ending is somewhat anticlimactic...
good piece nonetheless

7.5 / 10

Overall
James Albert is a good instrumentalist with excellent musical ideas... This is a disc
I will definitely be putting on my 'to buy' list - 10 wonderful instrumental pieces
for the bargain price of $5.99! At least worth a download or 5
