Eye of the storm...

Genre: AOR

Catchy and clean AOR-friendly melodic hard rock, Work of Art treats the listener to one catchy and well-crafted tune after another. There is a certain pop sensibility to this release, and, unlike other modern AOR bands, Work of Art do not really venture into metal territory.

Also, despite the title, there is nothing progressive about this album. However, it is solid, catchy, well written, and well performed - excellent melodic rock for those who like Toto, Journey and Giant.

The musicianship is top notch and, while I do not really consider this a metal album, it certainly has an uptempo drive that inspires a massive amount of rock-out with whatever appendages you prefer out!
