Progressive metal heads, TANGENT PLANE, have unleashed their second album,
æProject ElimniÆ, and it trumps their debut. For those who hoped to see these
guys go the more epic route, they got their wish. æProjectÆ is epic with some
pretty decent guitar melodies, piano/ keyboard moments and overall that
uplifting feeling that heavy metal gave listeners while hearing it. Tracks like
æOne Month In Real TimeÆ is heavily symphonic with a backing choir and just a
frantic tone to the guitars along with the keyboards which also seem like they
have a æsci-fiÆ tone to them near the end. Others such as æDeadbornÆ trudge
along in a more dramatic, symphonic fashion where the backing choirs are more
prevalent, switching from uplifting to depressing music. æOne MomentàÆ has some
pretty psychedelic keyboards to begin with and then launches into a guitar solo
which makes for a very hectic and wild track with the vocalist seeming like he
has a split personality, much like how a song from ARCTURUS would feel. It is
very progressive and wild at the same time but doesnÆt feel too random or
unnerving. The title track is the giant 20 minute epic for the band, and a real
step in progressive metalÆs direction to try and live up to the storytelling
power of DREAM THEATER. Of course, this song doesnÆt really do that kind of
justice, but it is still an enticing attempt to hear TANGENT PLANE just power
through without being too repetitive, although their music is mostly guitar and
riff based without much variation overall save for when the keyboards switch
from sounding like ambient instruments to a full on piano.

On the downside, the vocals are what make or break this band, as most vocalists
do. With TANGENT PLANE, the vocalist tends to sound a bit too wavering, like
VINTERSORG sometimes, but he doesnÆt use his voice to the right effect for the
music. Instead of being smooth and energetic, it sounds like heÆs singing while
driving over train tracks. It throws his pitch off. On the first track, his
voice suddenly changes to a deeper, almost robotic tone near the end which suits
him well- think of it in the way that Aaron from MY DYING BRIDE tends to go on
about his wailing and then suddenly will change into this dark, spoken word
prophet of doom and listeners will go ôDamn, thatÆs awesomeàö ItÆs the same
effect here. Sadly, it isnÆt used enough. That being said, his voice isnÆt
terrible, but sometimes it just seems like he is trying too hard to get into the
music and it makes everything seem cheesier than it needs to be. Fans who want
to get into æProject ElimniÆ will most likely want to do it for the music,
rather than the voice, but at the same time with each going hand in hand, it
makes it difficult to separate the two during the listening experience
altogether.
