The songwriting is clearly excellent and songs like Mirage exceed in evoking the psychedelic haze of the old prog lords. The instrumental tracks allow them to flaunt their stuff and showcase some interesting guitar and bass licks as well as some cool rhythm attacks from the drums. Lyrically this album is mystical and abstract, couplets like "Return to me a once lost dream/Of shattered hopes, marooned at sea/And set me free" showcase the general abstract quality of the music. In brief, this is a solid and oftentimes illuminating prog epic.
An exquisite piece of prog mastery, their new album Optic '72 shows a young prog band ready to break through and become masters of the scene. Filled with potential along side a clear love for their music and the genre Perilium is a joy to listen to. Optic '72 is an ethereal voyage on the seas of musical mastery that carries the listener away from this world and into one made of music. Something that fans of Dream Theater and Tool will love, Perilium respect their progenitors and show that prog is still a very lively and ever growing genre!
