Trans siberian orchestra download free
Well, that is preciselly the kind of recipe for the present symphonic pie: a good solid rocking rhythm section in the vein of the aforementioned ELO or the most simple Rick Wakeman putting the basis, and polyphonic keyboards assisted by guitars and violins layering the fruits and the cream. As trans siberian orchestra download free the vocals, the choral parts are great, but the solos not so much, to my ears at least.
Review by The Crow Prog Reviewer. After the success of the first trans siberian orchestra download free, Paul O'Neill and the guys from Savatage decided to make a second effort while they recorded their fabulous The Wake of Magellan, trans siberian orchestra download free. So, in terms of production both albums sound very similar and they contain the trademarks of the band like the wonderful piano melodies, trans siberian orchestra download free, the typical guitar crescendos, great vocals and polyphonic chorus, being The Wake of Magellan the heavy side of the band and The Christmas Attic the mellower one, just like Dead Winter Dead and Christmas Eve and Other Stories were also very related in style and sound.
For my taste most of the singed songs are not at the same level as the instrumental ones, which are normally the best songs of the TSO's Christmas albums anyway. Lead by producer Paul O'Neill, the Trans-Siberian Orchestra brings together musicians from all different genres, and namely members of the metal band Savatage, to bring us Christmas-themed rock operas.
Brilliantly arranged, with fantastic musicianship and some emotionally powerful vocals, if you're a Scrooge like me, at least this will give you something to look forward to around the holiday season. The great thing about this group is the diversity of styles utilized in the music. Most notable are the metal and rock influences, but there's elements of blues, jazz and classical music too, with singers coming from all kinds of musical backgrounds. With such a wide pallet of dynamics and styles at their disposal, the music constantly sounds fresh and exciting throughout.
In fact, the only major detriment with this release is that you can only really listen to it during the Christmas period, without feeling like a complete knob, that is. But when December 25th comes around, light some candles, pour some wine, and put on some Trans-Siberian Orchestra as you open presents with your loved ones. It's a truly wonderful experience. Or perhaps that's just me. I am borderline sociopathic, mind you Thankfully, here's the Trans-Siberian Orchestra to get us trans siberian orchestra download free the monotony of the Christmas period.
Sounding exactly like the metal band Savatage, but with an orchestra which funnily enough, is exactly what this is, for lack of a better descriptionTrans-Siberian Orchestra "TSO" for short take all the classic Christmas carols that we've come to love, and gives them the full rock opera treatment, with styles ranging from rock, pop and jazz, and an assortment of vocalists, including a kids choir thrown in for good measure.
There's a feeble attempt at a storyline in there somewhere, but I wouldn't bother digging too deep into it. TSO are a great and certainly unique group, but this album as a whole just feels slightly lacking. The musicianship is incredible, and the music covers a lot of ground, from epically bombastic tracks to beautifully emotional ones. However, some of the tracks seem the complete opposite.
Lifeless, dull, lacking any real emotion or depth. It's a good album though, and still worth listening to if you're fed up with hearing the same, trans siberian orchestra download free Christmas hits every year.
For my first ever review on Prog Archives, I'm going to be talking about an album that's very special trans siberian orchestra download free me. I've been a loyal fan of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra for more than half of my life. Furthermore, trans siberian orchestra download free, Night Castle was the album responsible for getting me into the world of prog, as it inspired my mother to introduce me to Yes keep in mind that I'm only 20 years old at the time of this review.
But you don't want to hear about me, so let's dive right in to this massive album. I will attempt to be as non-biased as possible. What do I like about this album? Night Castle is a double concept album, meaning there is a lot of music to absorb here more than 2 hours. There is also a very detailed story that goes along with the album. If you're going to listen to the album all the way through for the first time, then you absolutely have to follow along with the story booklet, trans siberian orchestra download free.
It simply isn't the same emotional experience with just the music. With that in mind, I'm not going to be revealing the details of the story in this review; that is for the individual listener to discover. It should be noted that Night Castle as with most TSO albums can be clearly divided into two categories of songs: instrumentals and non-instrumentals. The strongest moments on this album definitely occur in most of the instrumental tracks, so I'll talk about them first.
Also worth mentioning is the fact that TSO has around 20 musicians covering 5 instruments, so it's very hard to tell who is playing what at any given moment. The Memorable Instrumentals: "The Mountain" is a dark and ominous piece with a remarkably heavy tone throughout.
The song is a reworking of Savatage's "Prelude to Madness". It features some insane guitar solos, and is one of the most iconic tracks on the album. The piano and strings really take center stage in this piece.
It doesn't have as much of an intense impact as "The Mountain", but its diversity and trans siberian orchestra download free atmosphere make it my favorite track on the first disc.
Frequent tempo changes keep things alive and interesting in this all-too-short piece of prog metal goodness. Beginning with an excellent Beethoven piano solo, the song transitions into a dark prelude before the main song kicks in. Such a cool piece! Of all the songs on the album, this one has the most Christmas vibes.
The highlight has to be the quiet interlude where acoustic guitars and strings shine through. It might be the best instrumental on the album, however it does lack the tempo changes that make songs like "Toccata" and "Moonlight and Madness" so great.
Now on to the non-instrumentals, many of which are quite excellent. Since this trans siberian orchestra download free a rock opera, many different singers are present. All of them are fantastic vocalists without a doubt, but many people criticize TSO vocals as being too cheesy. The singing style really is "love it or hate it", but personally I find the vocals to be quite enjoyable. Only Tim Hockenberry's raspy voice grinds my gears here and there.
It is quite operatic, and features a fun keyboard solo followed by a quiet ending section. It is complex and intense, utilizing multiple tempo changes to its advantage. Soto, is a very emotional rock ballad. It might not have the structural variation of the some of the other songs, but it is a much needed break after several heavy tracks in a row. However, this song has a very unexpected instrumental bridge with fantastic piano work.
This is an outstanding 11 minute prog ballad that doesn't get boring for a single second at least for me. I would have to say that this is my personal favorite TSO song as of this review. Like I said earlier, trans siberian orchestra download free, knowing the story is an absolute must for truly feeling the emotion within this song. The brief choir parts are particularly fantastic.
However, 2. This is another song that is very much enhanced by the story. Using only strings and vocals, it is a very ethereal piece.
It is a shame that such an excellent piece of music is only 3 minutes long. What do I dislike about this album? Now, there aren't too many things that I truly dislike about Night Castle, but there are definitely criticisms worth mentioning. Most are simply minor complaints. However, I found it entirely unnecessary for the song to literally repeat itself after the short "Child of the Night" interlude. It merely makes the album longer than it needs to be.
The latter of the two does have a very nice guitar solo. But after seeing this song played live with added orchestration and cleaner vocals, no offense to Mr.
Hockenberryit makes me wonder why they didn't just orchestrate it in the first place. However, everything in this instrumental feels like it was forcibly cut short which was my main issue with their newest album, Letters From the Labyrinth. The piece could've easily been expanded by 3 minutes to allow for more musical exploration. This 9 minute rock ballad could've easily been trimmed by 3 minutes, and that probably would've made it more enjoyable. In my opinion, it is a very unnecessary inclusion on this already overpacked album.
My final bone to pick with this album is that there is a secret track titled "The Flight of Cassandra" that is only available with the Amazon MP3 version. I highly recommend buying the CD and then downloading this song separately, as it is the proggiest piece TSO has ever written. Yeah, it's that good! What are my overall thoughts?
Night Castle is a colossal album, trans siberian orchestra download free, to the point that there are almost too many songs for the listener to take in. I like what reviewer TheGazzardian said about condensing the music of the story onto one disc, then having a smaller disc with bonus tracks.
Sometimes, a short album with "all killer, no filler" is better than a long album with "a lot of killer, a lot of filler". This is just constructive criticism, of course. TSO is known for being one of the most accessible prog bands in the world, so of course Night Castle isn't as proggy of a concept album as something by Ayreon or Neal Morse.
In conclusion, I would give Night Castle 3. A sound that was exciting almost twenty years ago despite any sense of subtlety is now officially old hat enough to be dull. The aspects trans siberian orchestra download free made TSO so interesting in the 90s, their ability to rock out the classics in the context of a story or two is all but gone. What we get is an endless series of plodding power ballads and triteness intermixed with classic pieces usually played delicately but which also have no real place in the story.
Whatever that story may. I can't tell what it is about. At least with their first two albums, trans siberian orchestra download free, Christmas Eve and Other Stories along with Beethoven's Last Night, the classical interludes fit in and enhanced the stories being told.
And even though this is not a Christmas album, it might as well be with all its references to childhood and "this night. A Christmas story can be dark. I am reading the second Christmas novella written by Charles Dickens called The Chimes, and it is very dark indeed. Yet it is also effective, something which Night Castle is not.
