Wilderun: Masterfully composed and flow together beautifully!

Tweet

Wilderun states, « There’s a spark made of sleep remembering when time held its mystery!». Wilderun 4^th album is entitled Epigone and here are the track Distraction I,

The new album is a follow up to Veil Of Imagination and this was critically acclaimed. Eipgone offers much snacks as Berry`s vocals and very nice orchestration and the dynamic use of acoustic and heavy parts. Wilderun showcases throughout Epigone great musicianship and as a bonus hooks into unexpected places and the album become better for each time I listen! That is quality I must admit, and the complexity and very good arrangement and a cohesive and balanced album make Epigone a close to perfect album.

Tonycordeshimself says, «The songs are masterfully composed and flow together beautifully, and the orchestration is exactly how I want prog metal orchestration to sound: full, playable by a real orchestra, and just as important to the music as the vocals, drums, guitar, and bass are. Favorite track: Far From Where Dreams Unfurl».
