THIRD VOICE
'MOMENTS LIKE THESE' (INDEPENDENT)
A few months ago I reviewed the debut CD of THIRD VOICE, which was 'Reflections', originally released in 1998. Now, this duo (vocalist Jeff Kearney and multi-instrumentalist Jason Pirone) has released a new CD, entitled 'Moments like these'. And I can tell you this is a very good album that contains pure Progressive Rock with a lot of melodies. There are 14 tracks on the album, and my favourites include "Setting sun" (pure Progrock, great melodic chorus), "Take me back", "Blinded", "Moments like these" and the last 3 tracks. Those last 3 songs on the CD show a slightly different side of THIRD VOICE. The calmer ballads "New day" and "Carry my soul (part 1)" are both very good and remind me of GARY HUGHES and TEN. Part 2 of "Carry my soul" closes the CD and is another great more AOR/Melodic Rock orientated semi ballad, again a la TEN. This new CD of THIRD VOICE is a recommended piece for anyone who likes melodic progressive rock, somewhere a cross between DREAM THEATER and TEN, only without the big production arrangements.
