Ever since
Yngwie Malmsteen started out every single 'guitar hero' must have his own
project and here is the latest in a long row of such releases. Beto Vazquez is
actually from Argentina but unlike his country in general he seems to be doing
fairly well at the moment. Some of you may remember him from the now defunct
band Nepal where he wrote most of the music. Now he presents his own project
called "Infinity" where he takes advantage of some of the best metal
musicians in the world (that is from the softer, more progressive side). This
is definitely not the heaviest album out there and there are actually very few
songs on the album that could even be categorized as metal but this is still a
very nice album.
Besides Beto Vázquez there are a number of other Argentinian
musicians featured on this album.
Jörg Michael from Stratovarius performs the
drums and the vocal duty is shared between
Tarja Turunen (Nightwish), Sabine
Edelsbacher (Edenbridge), Candice Night (Blackmore's Night)
and Fabio Lione
(Rhapsody). You might compare this album to the Ayreon projects although this
one is not as weird and futuristic.
The music is very nice, especially the
tracks with flutes where Candice's caressing vocals take lead. Unfortunately
the rest of the tracks aren't that exciting and the vocal performances from
Tarja, Sabine and Fabio are pretty weak compared to what they do in their
other bands. Still, this is a very strong release, especially for those of you
who enjoy soft, and I do mean soft, symphonic and melodic metal with female
vocals.
