Too Human – “Forever And A Day”
Not
the most prototypical group of this world, for sure… It’s obvious that
these four young Americans have been listening many times to Rush (mainly)
and Queensryche (and maybe Marillion).
Of course, this is nothing bad, but sometimes it seems that they refer
to these mega-groups more than needed. Their whole style is rather similar
to the Canadian pioneers, and the vocals many times tend to be a clone
of either Geoff Tate or Geddy Lee. But I guess we shouldn’t be unkind where
it’s not needed, should we? And this is one of the cases where we should
stay calm, because these guys have a lot of talent. And this is obvious
from the integration of their songs, and from their melodies, too, which
are obvious as much as they’re inspired. Very good sound and great future
(they have already changed guitarist and singer, though). I think it’s
just a matter of time for them to create their own musical style and let
their undeniable talent grow. Until then, “Forever And A Day”, their first,
self-financed work, remains a very nice choice for all the Rush and Ryche
fans. Check them out at www.alltoohuman.com.
