PARALLEL MINDS
Written by Magnus Florin

The second album from this band. When it comes to comparing it with the third release "In Your Multitude", I know that people don't agree on that. I must say that I prefer "In Your Multitude", since it's a much better performance from the band on that album, but this one is real good too. All songs are great, it's just that the third album has a much wider atmosphere when it comes to the sound. For some time I thought that tracks 1,3, 5, 7 and 9 were the best ones, but I later realized that all of them were indeed just as good.

Once again, I must say that Tore is one great player. He adds the 90's metal style to the old Al DiMeola style. What Meola did in the 70's is what can be heard on these Conception albums. As usal this album has a very good ballad, "Silent Crying". There was even a metal compilation named after this song.

The fact that Conception was thrown down in the mud by their record company, I find very hard to understand. Conception was one of the best bands of the 90's, that's for sure...
