This is a fine first effort from Dale Simmons, and hopefully the beginning of more to come. Alternatively, his leads can be softer and warmer as in the last part of Stolen Wings. As said earlier, like Gilmour, he's got that dramatic expression with solos that are epic and soaring. Ultimately, I looked forward in each song for Simmons' guitar lines and leads. The result is a body of songs that offer both intrigue and entertainment. Simmons seems to want to work more towards creating an atmosphere, even some sort of musical vision, with each composition rather than dazzle you with technical wizardry. The songs, their arrangements, are more ambitious and dense than complex. The timbre of his guitar leads towards Gilmour yet without cloning him. Simmons admits influence from Steve Wilson, Peter Gabriel, Pink Floyd, and David Gilmour, and you'll hear those influences throughout. This is classic melodic and progressive rock, with a slight bend towards metal at times (the latter half of Dead Reckoning comes to mind here). Suffice to say it has to do with some dude choosing a life of isolation and seclusion and then dealing with it's consequences.Īlternatively, the music isn't all that mysterious. It's kind of complex and mysterious, and you can read more about it on his web site. Radio Silence is somewhat of a concept album. Open only to users who haven't already tried Premium.
