King, Lance - A Moment In Chiros

SKU NMR559
One of the great vocalists in metal has finally come out with a solo album. Many of you know Lance King from his work with Balance Of Power, Pyramaze, and Avian. Of course he also runs Nightmare Records. A Moment In Chiros is a conceptual work based around the 11:11 phenomena. He called in his chips and brought onboard an array of talent to co-write and record with him: Jacob Hansen (Beyond Twilight, Invocator & Anubis Gate), Kim Olesen (Anubis Gate), Michael Harris (Darkology, Thought Chamber), Tore St Moren (Jorn), Fred Colombo (Spheric Universe Experience), Markus Sigfridsson (Darkwater / Harmony), Kevin Codfert (Adagio), Michael Hansen & Shane Dhiman (Phonomik), Morten Gade Sørensen (Pyramaze, Wuthering Heights), Elyes Bouchoucha, Malek Ben Arbia, Anis Jouini (Myrath) & Mistheria (Bruce Dickinson). The album was produced by Kim Olesen and Jacob Hansen. Melodic/progressive metal recommended to fans of Redemption and Dream Theater.

Umm - I liked this, I think Lance King could sing nursery rhymes and it would sound good (remember when he sang about a unicorn on the first Pyramaze disc?). I was hoping for something like the 2nd Pyramaze disc ("Legend of the Bone Carver") or something like Balance of Power circa "Perfect Balance". This really isn't either. Good, some spots are very good, but not amazing in my opinion.

HUMBLE GREATNESS, FULLY REALIZED!!!., November 14, 2011 By Teddy Bates (THEPROGNUT) - See all my reviews This review is from: A Moment In Chiros (Audio CD) Its a beautiful thing to know someone who realizes there's more to music than just the sonic power it unleashes, or the electric bombast it brings. A true artist knows his music and words, have the power to motivate, herald a change, identify someones hurt, and even help that someone heal. Your true talent, lies not in your voice, powerfully majestic, as it is. Your true talent lies in the way you care for your loved ones, both friends and family. The way you take time, for a beloved, dutiful, beautiful wife, and your loved and adored children. On stage, is where you rock, take command, and for every admiring fan, conquer and win. Off stage, is where the man of faith, principle, who'd do anything for his Beloved, Cherished, Family, where the real Lance King, both ends yet begins, each day anew. You my friend, taught me, this truth. In this brief time, called lifetime, ive learned Love, isn't so much shown in what we say, to our loved ones rather it is in (for our) loved ones, what we do. If you are a fan of any of Lance's other very worthy projects (Balance Of Power, Pyramaze, Avian, Mattson, Shining Star, Defyance) this cd eclipses them ALL!!!. Backed by a veritable who's who of musicians in today's Prog/Power/Melodic Metal scene, and produced by Jacob Hansen (Anubis Gate) it draws from all his music and life experience, and features his FINEST VOCAL PERFORMANCE EVER. A Tapestry of Thought provoking lyrics, equally powerful music, from the Metallic, to the Progressive, to the heart wrenchingly hauntingly, serene. A statement of Passion, A Project with Purpose from one of the finest vocalists of this, or any generation... Lance King.... All this, and a worthy cause too, as portions of this release, will go to stop HUMAN SEX TRAFFICKING WORLDWIDE. AS A SEX ABUSE SURVIVOR, I CAN SAY... THIS CD ENCOURAGES AND INSPIRES ME. GOD BLESS THE FANS & GOD BLESS LANCE!!!!.
