ALL IS WELL
"All is clearly well in the IYAM camp.
Their new CD is just plainly incredible! The talent in each individual member
is memorable but joined together as a band, you've got one hell of a band
and product! I want to say that the music falls somewhere in with Dream Theater
and Rush with a side influence of Satriani. Starting off the CD with title
track "All Is Well" you get a small sample of what is to follow with
the strong sounds both musically and vocally. "Witches And Warlocks"
has a mesmerizing vocal style and the beat will hold you at attention. "Musical
Chairs" has a strong Pink Floyd sound and notable lyrics - "We are
all things/we are floating/now the end sings/now we leave our/Musical Chairs".
"Majestic Union" is a catchy song and would be one for airplay. "Dreams
In Progress", "Going Through The Motions", "Climbing The Walls" and "It's
All A Show" have lyrical poetry and the music to make these words into
some breathtaking songs. The CD has incredible production and the booklet
is artsy and very impressive - this is a top notch product. You can go out
and find All Is Well at Cactus, Don's Record Shop or "Rock N Roll It". Better
yet, go to the CD Release Party on March 29th at Headquarters (first 50 people
get a free CD or cassette!). "
