lyrics
The Man To Be • there’s a man with many faces • I know them all • his spirit is all broken • but the man still standing tall • I thought I knew him well • long time ago • just a man • I sense the eyes of broken dreams • I’ll never know the truth about the man I am • I find myself struggling with the inner me • my god what’s going on with me? • the image is all broken • I look in the mirror and it’s something else • it’s someone else I see • someone different • no not me • I am the man to be • I’m loosing control • try to find out • I’m loosing my soul • I am the man • when they see the true inner me • I’m nothing but a messed up key • my identity was taken • I define myself • but based on what • I really am not sure who can I be • just me • beauty is in the air and I got flowers in my head • now that I have found what I am looking for • it’s a beauty of a kind with no boundaries of time • the shining part of you the shining part of me • you’re the only one who truly knows who’s me • because I am your true your true identity • the man to be with you saved before the fall • trying to forget the faces on the wall

With its debut album, this young band from Vienna follows the footsteps of honorable Austrian prog masters like "Matter Of Taste". The music on this concept album is not of the kind I'd call particularly innovative - it travels pretty much on well known roads paved by many others long ago. However, these youngsters do it in a highly pleasant way, skillfully avoiding the pitfalls of pseudo-progressive phrase rehashing most of the time - certainly more successfully so than several of their experienced grand paragons of prog.

Beautiful progressive metal from Israel. A surprisingly mature debut, surpassing many other bands who are far more well-known.

Not a Good Sign
by AltrOck Productionssupported by 6 fans who also own “Man to Be”
Highly productive cooperation of two Italian avantgarde masters: Paolo "Ske" Botta ("Ske") and Francesco Zago ("Yūgen", "Empty Days", "The Night Watch"). Also on board are Gabriele Guidi Colombi (bass) and Alessio Calandriello (vocals), both of them regular members of "La coscienza di Zeno", as well as Martino Malacrida, who contributed the drums on "Eros & Thanatos" by "Syndone". So this is kind of a "supergroup", which is usually not a good sign... but it's an excellent supergroup this time. A dense and dark atmosphere covers the songs on this debut album, which provide plenty of ingenious counterpoints, and sometimes get quite close to avantgarde fields.

Well, I wouldn't say that the music of "Section IV" defies genres... in my opionion, it belongs to the neo-prog genre without any doubt. But on the other hand, there's nothing wrong with that. The important thing is that the band contributes great new work to the genre, helping to keep it alive.
