Synopsis

Product Description
The fifth release by Tamdrin is a conceptual album that ruminates on the increasing alienation of the individual, ironically, in the fast-paced technological era of mass, instant communication. The physical theme of the earth's axial tilt becomes a metaphor for the observations, thoughts and reflections of often weary and confused human characters, wishing to lead simpler lives or escape altogether from the daily bombardment of oftem trite and useless information.
Tracks:
1. Time Enough
2. Light Across the Darkness
3. Axial Tilt
4. All the Good Tomorrows
5. Corona into the Vortex
6. Magnetic Declination
7. Days Go By
8. Terralines
9. Alchemies and Mysteries
10. Axial Inclination
11. Traps and Chains

CD Reviews

Tamdrin's contemporary prog-rock-folk-psych conceptual maste
McClintic Sphere | The Third Planet from the Sun | 05/24/2010
(5 out of 5 stars)

"There's far too many words written about rock music these days. Rather than read another glowing review, why not buy the CD or download the album and listen to it a few times. The more you do the more you'll begin to realise this one's a magnificent sleeper - and that some day in the future people'll be asking why no one had heard about it at the time.



As for the closing track, Traps and Chains, has there been a better song than this one in the last decade or so? It features the most precise, complete yet shortest guitar solo since Amos Garrett's in Maria Muldaur's 'Midnight at the Oasis'.



Do your ears a favour, check this out - conceptual with a contemporary them, it is both original yet hints at great times and fine sounds gone by - that elusive quality that makes music so special."
