NIGHTINGALE - Invisible 2-CD
For people who are unfamiliar with Nightingale, they are a side project for Edge of Sanity mastermind Dan Swano which also features his brother Dag. Swano has pursued a different route in this band by exploring the progressive rock territories, which for hardcore fan of edge of sanity is quite surprising but nonetheless refreshing to hear. Swano's influences range from Spocks Beard, Yes, and even Pink Floyd which you can hear on the latter track on this album.
The album starts out with a strong resemblance to their 2003 album untitled "Alive Again". The only difference being on this occasion they seem to have some harder riffs in store. Dan Swano has really developed into an exceptional vocalist and that quality is what defines Nightingale as a band. Along with Swano's great vocals the guitar work is solid with several memorable solos enticing you to listen again and again.
