CANVAS SOLARIS are an all-instrumental trio out of Georgia in the USA. They play a technical and complex brand of Metal but the added synths and synth-guitar allow for some nice contrasts and a break from the heaviness. This is their second studio album released in 2006. In the liner notes they mention that this album is dedicated to VOIVOD's Denis D'Amour who is no longer with us. GORDIAN KNOT is a good reference but the heavier parts here get close to ZERO HOUR's intensity. All in all an excellent album for those into technical Metal with a bit of variety. A low 4 stars for me.
