REVIEW FROM STRUTTER MAGAZINE ( NETHERLANDS)

"ASCENSION THEORY `ANSWERS' (NIGHTMARE RECORDS)



The American band ASCENSION THEORY has a new CD out, `Answers', which is their 2nd album so far. I find this to be a very impressive band and with their new CD they show they are definitely in the upper league of progressive rock/metal. This CD may be put next to releases of VANISHING POINT, VANDENPLAS, SHADOW GALLERY... Songs like "Passion of my heart", "Lockstep", "Saturn's reign", "Decisions" and "Answers" are truly superb Melodic Progressive Rock/Metal songs in the style of mentioned bands. Definitely a must have release for a fan of this quality genre.

Great melodic prog metal!

"Ascension Theory's second album features great keyboard and guitar work. "Passion of My Heart" and "Saturn's Reign" are among my favorite tracks. A guest female vocalist appears on two songs. If you like melodic progressive metal you should enjoy this album!"
Putting the prog in metal

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Very technical with a very progressive slant. Where a lot of so called prog/metal bands sound more symphonic metal, Ascension T. are heavy on the prog. This album, I think, should be taken as a whole not just by the song. Great great rhythm section, the drummer is rock solid and there is a great sense of structure to the whole album. I hear a few influences, almost an ELP meets Dream Theatre sense but even that doesn't quite describe these guys. Melodic album for those that are looking for something, say, more mature sounding?"
