PUPPET SHOW - TRAUMATIZED - 1997

Great US one-shot band,playing a mixture of Neo-prog and Sympho-prog bordering Prog- Metal(not that agressive like now - more in early Dream Theater's vein).Such excellent track as "As ye hath Sown" gives the whole impression of the record - it begins with 7/8 pattern,continiues in "The Knife"-vein,has greta ballad-like mid-part and ends up again with groovy 12/8 part.Very emotional singer,good musicians,well played and composed epics ("Relativity" has awesome chorus!) - and a pretty underrated band as a result :-( They're must have been,along with DISCIPLINE,the mostly underrated US New Symphonic band from 90s...Give them some more attention,they do really worth it!!!
