Alberto Rigoni – Rebirth
(2011) – Review by Logan Lee
Rebirth
is the second album I’ve heard (and I am quite sure it is his second solo
album) of this very talented Italian bass player. Alberto Rigoni, with plenty
of other amazing musicians such as Porcupine Tree’s drummer Gavin Harrison, has
managed to surprise me again on this pleasant return. His first solo album,
“Something Different” (which I got directly from him on the Twinspirits
concert), was truly a very interesting demonstration of his versatility and
technical ability with the Bass.

EUMERIA – REBEL MIND
International progressive metal band, formed by
ex Outworld member Bobby Willliamson (keyboards), the line up is completed by Jonny Tatum (Vocals), who also sings on
two tracks on Aeon Zen’s The Face of the Unknow, Reece Fullwood, guitars (a 21
year old guitar virtuoso) Shawn Kascak Ex Outworld (bass), and drummer Kevin Bartlett (since Oliver Jungmann from Tomorrow’s Eve,
I have not heard an impressive and arrythmic double bass). Eumeria is an incredible progressive metal band from the A to the Z, you just need to heard one song to get hooked, once you heard it the first time you wont stop listening to more and more, the power of the 7th string riffs are amazing along with the solos, the drumming is fast and very complicated, very precise, a very high skill drummer indeed, the keyboards are excellent, the solos and all the orchestral arrangements, also with a great bass punch and beautiful vocals.

DREAM THEATER, THE BEST PROGRESSIVE BAND ON EARTH, ANNOUNCES: MIKE MANGUINI IS THEIR NEW DRUMMER!!! CONGRATULATIONS AND WE HOPE THE BEST!!
Message from John Petrucci
Added on 04-30-2011
"Welcome Mike Mangini!
Well, it's been a very exciting day for all of us in Dream Theater and
we are happy to finally share the news that Mike Mangini is our new
drummer! He is not only a beast of a player but an incredible person as
well who truly and fully understands and values everything that we
strive to be as a band. Thank you for being so patient and incredibly
supportive to us throughout the years and especially over the last
several months. Thank you for your faith in us and your immediate and
practically across-the-board acceptance of Mike Mangini as our new
drummer. Thank you for the positive words about the documentary and all
of your passion and dedication. The movie is our gift and our invitation
into something that would traditionally be very private and I
appreciate everyone's sensitivity towards that. There's a lot of work to
be done, so back to the studio. JM finished tracking bass today and
Jordan is recording as I type. Things are real busy around here. Can't
wait for everyone to hear the new music and to begin playing live with
Mike!
God Bless,
John"

PerfectProg goes South (in Italy) 
Interview with Daniele Liveranifrom
A few months ago I received the news of the
latest Twinspirits release, their third album Legacy (see album review attached
after this interview), and that they would perform live around Italy for a 15
dates promotion tour. Of course, I went checking the nearest place and it was
on a city called Caserta a few miles before Naples, on the southern Italy.
The
trip was already organized and I contacted, using the amazing tool called
internet, the mind behind the band Daniele Liverani (Empty Tremor, Genius Rock
Opera, Cosmics) to set an interview after the concert. Daniele quickly positive
response was a great prelude for the interview itself. March 25th ,
the night of the concert arrived and I was there 2 hours before the show.

Twinspirits – Legacy (2011) – Review by Logan Lee
I got
this album the night I performed the interview with Daniele Liverani at a night
club/pub in Caserta/Italy and in order to be partial on this review I forced
myself to start hearing it at least a week after the concert (to avoid
influences from the interview and concert). The result was revealing: the album
is great....
