Free Music Notes for God's Equation
Free Music Review: I love this album.
Hit: 5 Stars
This is my first taste of Pagan's Mind. It seems that a lot of PM fans on amazon and elsewhere see this is a step down as compared to previous PM albums. If this is really true then their earlier albums must have reached divine musical perfection because I see this as a truely great album from beginning to end. As a fan of progressive and power metal I love both the really heavy side of metal and the really melodic side and this album satisfies both criteria.
I can't really consider PM to be a power metal band, they have the melodies that would usually be a characteristic of power metal and also the vocals, but they lack the speed and the overly cheesy feel of that music. Anyway, God's Equation is a very solid album from beginning to end. The band go through a bunch of songs that range from being all out aggressive groovy metal songs, to airy catchy and almost poppy hard rock songs. After a short instrumental overture, the title track opens as one of the heaviest, catchiest and all round best songs on the album. The melodies in the chorus of the title track are just breath taking, and the guitar solo is amazing. United Alliance and Spirit Starcruiser are two very commercial sounding numbers with a massive focus on the melodic choruses and just good old power, just listen to the guitar work in the closing minute of Spirit Starcruiser, its amazing. If you want heavy tunes just listen to Atomic Firelight with its frantic staccatto opening or Alien Kamikaze with is fist pumping breakdown and massive guitar solo. If you want a more progressive side just listen to Painted Skies with its retarded instrumental mid-section or the big finale of Osiris's Triumphant Return. The cover of Bowies 'Hallo Spaceboy' is simply epic and it fits right in with the rest of the songs, Nils does a great Bowie impersonation only he really makes this song shine.
Nils vocals on this album are really great, he proves himself to be an excellent vocalist with a wide range. The guitarist may be playing metal but he has the soul of a rockstar, he avoids random shredding and really goes for writing some amazing solo's, the keyboards provide a constant airy futuristic atmosphere with the music, you can't hear the bass very well in the mix but the drummer is a real powerhouse. I can't really recomend this album to fans of Dream Theater and Symphony X because I don't hear all that much of a similarity, however fans of progressive metal and rock in general should eat this album up without a problem. 4 1/2 stars.
God's Equation Poster
Norway has been considered the breeding ground of Black Metal for years - knowing that, many people tend to forget that the land has hatched a handful of top-class, unmistakable Progressive Metal bands. In the year 2000, this scene brought up Pagan s Mind, who release their fourth studio album in 2007. This progressive masterpiece is called God s Equation , and the Norwegian quintet has put all its experience so far in it. `God s Equation` is a musical giant consisting of groove, melody, intelligent heaviness and ambitious song writing. Skillfully and cleverly, the musical essences of that what constitutes progressive Heavy Metal, are joined here.With `God s Equation`, Pagan s Mind have created an album which doesn t need to hide behind the big, monumental works of the scene leaders. Without exaggeration, God s Equation is one of the most intense, fundamental and outstanding albums released by Limb Music Products so far. Pagan s Mind - the future of innovative Metal? Without any doubt.
The special Limited Edition version contains a second disc featuring 6 bonus tracks, the Atomic Firelight videoclip and other bonus extras.
