Iconic and prolific composer and musical collaborator in the progressive rock universe, Neal Morse brings a new project to the genre with Neal Morse & The Resonance. Rather than an international alliance, like Transatlantic, The Resonance unites local musicians from the Nashville area.
The album consists of only five songs: but it's three short songs bookended by two prog opuses at over 20 minutes, Of course, in true Morse tradition, the two longer songs, Eternity In Your Eyes and No Hill For A Climber, are adventures in prog rock creativity and experimentation. Both are divided into parts with both instrumental and voice sections.
Of the shorter songs, Thief throws you a curve with its mild start, but then erupts with a heavier middle with some big drums and hard organ. Alternatively, Ever Interceding has a gentler flow turning upon the vocal arrangement and acoustic guitar as the lyrics remind the Christian of Christ's ongoing intercession in his life. All The Rage is the most rambunctious of the bunch. Essentially, melodic hard rock with wistful prog nuances (notably in a piano segue after the midpoint) to temper the heaviness.
All said, Neal Morse's new project The Resonance, finds the elder statesman of progressive rock working with some fine locally grown Nashville talent. The result, No Hill For A Climber, is a fresh, creative, and entertaining album of classic melodic progressive rock.
