Review of second Parallel Worlds album INSIGHT.

[Parallel Worlds]

hello again,
here's the review of my second cd album INSIGHT from the Expose magazine(US):

"It sometimes may take longer then expected for an artist to get his albums released. Well, that story applies to Parallel Worlds. Bakis Sirros from Greece produced a lot of music, enough to fill up at least 3 albums. It took a few years before at last he found Rubber and Shima Records willing to bring out his music. That means that within one year 3 albums are seeing the light. This is the second one. The pieces are more complex then on existence, with more worked out atmosphere.

"Mechanical Mood" is an perfect example that complexity and tightness can blend.
"The Past",with it's floating bed of mystery very well suits a classic horror flick. Salty Air is out of place here, too bright melodies.
"Hollow Minds", "Insight" and "Dying Earth" are lesser efforts, but Sirros ends strongly with "Non Linear" full of warm thick new romantic emotions, while the closer "Mind Breath" is a strip of blinding light in a pitch black vista.

So not all the tunes are as hot as those on Existence (that album has grown enormously on me since my review), sometimes the complexity is a hinder, but when it works, it can let a piece really shine.
