I am really really liking the vocal quality and performance.  Once the vocals start, and especially on the chorus, this reminds me of Kings X with Doug Pinnick singing.  On the chorus I&#8217;m thinking &#8220;Damn I really like this tune&#8221; &#8211;excellent chord changes on the chorus with the change to IV minor.<\/p>\n<p><b>Constructive Comments: <\/b>The intro is too long, and I think a bit too &#8220;Island Sugary&#8221;.  I&#8217;d drop the triangle and make this more of a straight ahead Rock tune.  I *didn&#8217;t* like the guitar break\/solo&#8211;me personally I hate pick harmonics but more importantly you got into some mindless riffs in the middle of the solo&#8211;I would really urge making it a pure melodic solo with no &#8220;box of riffs&#8221; crutches used, and no pick harmonics&#8230;just for me.This is EXCELLENT work.  You really made my ears jump on this one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broadjam Artist: Tom ReockSong: Fight Of My LifeReviewer: Jeff RobertsPositive Comments: Starting out more Latin\/New Age than Prog, but so what, great sounds, and the edgy guitar takes it into Prog territory.
