I don't think "progressive" really describes Pure Reason Revolution adequately. Maybe "progressively symphonic psychedelically epic melodic rock," would be more appropriate. The Dark Third, their debut from 2006, is comprised of slowly building melodies and often soaring vocal choruses. It appears, according to information provided by the band, that there are four member of PRR. This is obviously some sort of ruse. I cannot comprehend that only four human beings are responsible for the sonic output of this album. The album plays out like a 70's prog- rock epic, however it's songs are very forward looking, almost futuristic at times. Think maybe Pink Floyd meets Porcupine Tree plus a whole boat load of choruses and harmonizing. Listening to this album while driving down a pitch black highway in the dead of the night is highly recommended.Monday, March 15, 2010
