Order
of Nine comes from United States and they exist from 1997.
The band early this year they released their new album, which
is their second one, with the title "Season of Reign"
and it has eleven songs. The band in these eleven tracks gives
us the whole project that they have in their mind. Musically
the band has a lot of influences from Queensryche,
when they released great albums and not now. Also Michael
DeGrena, sometimes has some similarities with Geoff
Tate. But of course Order of Nine isn't a copy
of Queensryche. Of course they have a lot of
influences but also they have put a lot of their personal
sound so we have the final result that you can hear it in
their newest album. Power / Progressive Metal with interesting
ideas inside their well worked compositions and a very nice
combination of their influences with their personal sound.
As a quality progressive band, Order of Nine, have
great guitar work, with interesting guitar riffs thanks to
Michael Chiccitt. By the way now i noticed that Order
of Nine has three Michaels, interesting thing. I hope
in their next release Order of Nine will have a better
sound, because sometimes the sound from this album isn't so
good as their compositions.
