From a purely musical standpoint, this album is exceptional. Kim Olesen (Anubis Gate) and Markus Sigfridsson (Darkwater\/Harmony) have rejoined him to contribute guitar and keys on several songs each. But this time around Lance has recruited the help of Rich Hinks (Aeon Zen), who contributes guitars\/keys on a few tracks and bass on most of the tracks, and newcomer Matt Hodsdon (Chaos Frame) who also contributes guitars and keys on a few tracks. Morten Gade Sorenson (Pyramaze\/Wuthering Heights\/Anubis Gate) is back in the drum seat. Along with a few other guest musicians, this collection of artists has crafted a more powerful and diverse collection of songs this time around. Lyrically, there is much here to fathom as Lance has a lot to say, so fans of progressive metal take note.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\">Unlike many releases where the best songs are the first 4 or 5, I feel that this album gains momentum throughout \u2013 the weakest two songs (for me) the opening two tracks \u2013 culminating in the 10 minute closer \u201cA Mind At War.\u201d The opener title track is a short affair, but it nicely sets the stage, both musically and lyrically, for what follows. While thankfully not \u201coverture\u201d like, the song makes a quick statement. This song focuses on the concept that a child\u2019s innate imagination and capacity for expansive thought is blunted by the \u201cprocess\u201d of going to school and getting \u201ceducated.\u201d We are encouraged to remain \u201cchild-like\u201d is our passions and dreams. While following our passions can often lead to destruction, if we are grounded in truth, and allowed to dream, we can \u201csee what is unseen\u201d \u2013 see beyond the veil of this world.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\" style=\"font-size: 16px; margin-left: 80px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><span style=\"color: #502b7b;\"><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">\u201cWe\u2019re all born artists, remaining one is hard.\u201d<\/span> \u2013 \u201cReProgram\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\">\u201cPointing Fingers\u201d follows in tandem with the problems depicted in relationships (\u201cYou\u2019re never happy, just want it your way\u201d) standing in stark contrast to the innocent trust of childhood. The music is heavy \u2013 with nice guitar crunch and pace \u2013 and the deft guitar solo serves as a nice introduction to those not familiar with the talented Rich Hinks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\">The first real highlight for me is \u201cStanding Your Ground.\u201d This is one of the tracks here that fans of Balance of Power will really enjoy because it has a heavy punch and big melody. Fans of Markus Sigfridsson will really appreciate his efforts on this one, and I think his guitar solo here shows how nicely he has matured as a guitarist. While the rousing chorus chants \u201cStand your ground, we all gotta deal with fear and rejection\u201d (true!) the second part of that \u201cStand your ground, guard yourself with a bit of self love and affection\u201d is a bit nebulous. We are naturally more \u201cself-centered\u201d than \u201cother-centered\u201d by our nature, so while it is a positive action to deal fearlessly with the rejection of others, only truth can free us from our slavery to ourselves.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\" style=\"margin-left: 80px;\"><span style=\"color: #502b7b;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">\u201cNever let anyone sell you their mind pollution.\u201d \u2013 <\/span>\u201cStand Your Ground\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\">\u201cTechnology\u201d \u2013 the first longer, more progressive track \u2013 is full of truthful and honest observations about the personal costs of \u201cprogress,\u201d especially as we have increasingly become slaves to our devices and constant information updates. Musically, I hear Anubis Gate influences from Kim Olesen, but there is this insane Pink Floyd-like guitar solo going on in the middle of the song that slows things down in a nice laid-back manner and provides dynamic contrast to the rest of the song with the heavy guitar and drum grooves. The guitar noodling picks up again on the somewhat prolonged outro, but then the song ends abruptly with a rushed-sounding drum fill. Still, it is a highlight song, along with \u201cReaction Formation\u201d which follows. This is the second song that has that Balance of Power, slower rock vibe and Lance\u2019s vocal melodies really shine, along with some great guitar chord progressions in the chorus section. Lyrically, this song emphasizes the importance of unconditional love \u2013 don\u2019t judge what you don\u2019t understand. Fear breeds hate, self-righteousness leads to loneliness\/isolation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\">\u201cLimitless\u201d is one of the most uplifting songs here, an inspiring song about the limitless nature of our belief if we can move past the confines of the daily routine. Markus Sigfridsson once again contributes the guitars and keys, and there is an almost Celtic melodic lilt going on here toward the latter portion of the song. \u201cWide Open\u201d features a much slower tempo and an almost funk groove alternating with a twangy laid-back crunch. The message is to \u201copen your eyes\u201d and find truth and not rely on politicians or government for salvation. Instead, \u201ccut the cord\u201d and break away from the hive mentality. There is a spacy key outro layered with vocals in the background which nicely segues with piano into \u201cChaotica,\u201d a heavy up-tempo number featuring Matt Hodsdon on guitar. Sorenson\u2019s thumping keeps the song moving at an urgent pace as the lyrics warn that the media constantly feeds our morbid curiosity for the negative and controversial news.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"align-center font_8\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/heavensmetalmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/mqdefault-1-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"470\" height=\"264\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\">As stated earlier, this album keeps accelerating toward the finale &#8211; the final 3 songs a brilliant culmination. \u201cSpell of Domestication\u201d (that\u2019s a great descriptive!) is the most aggressive song on the album, both musically and vocally (a few harsh vocal sections). It\u2019s filled with crushing lurching rhythms and percussive tom fills, double bass, snare attacks intermixed with crash cymbal rides. Dynamic musically, the lyrics are no less so. Take personal responsibility for your actions and have purpose and conviction in all you strive to accomplish. \u201cPerfect World\u201d switches back to the more melodic side with this incredibly catchy lead and chorus. Trust in your deepest relationships (marriage) is priceless. Not only is that relationship a sanctuary from the chaos of the world, it hopefully displays the ultimate in self-sacrifice and unconditional love.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\">Saving the best for last, the closer \u2013 the most progressive song musically \u2013 reminds us that the spiritual battle is ultimately won\/lost in the mind. This is an epic prog tune with plenty of contrast, transitions, all anchored by this very cool reoccurring heavy guitar riff, almost a Fates Warning quality. Keyboards are interlaced with guitar solos and an interesting eulogy mid-song which is all backed up with Sorenson\u2019s tom interplay. This is clearly the most musically ambitious song on the album.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\" style=\"font-size: 16px; margin-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #502b7b;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">\u201cBetween the beauty of Darkness and Light\/A Mind at War\/a Balance of Power seems to unite a Mind at War\u201d \u2013 <\/span>\u201cA Mind At War\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\">The CD comes with an essential 16-page booklet which in addition to lyrics and credits includes some great insights by Lance regarding his inspirations and thoughts around the content of this release and the contributions of his musicians.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\">Overall, Lance and friends have surpassed the solid, yet somewhat more one-dimensional <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">A Moment in Chiros<\/span> \u2013 more power, more diversity and no sappy ballads! And where that album was more personal in nature lyrically, the topics and observations on <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">ReProgram<\/span> are more universally accessible and extremely relevant to the world we live in right now. These songs stand up well to repeated play and this one is highly likely to be on a lot of year end favorite lists. Lance, glad to have you back writing music!<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nightmarerecords.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Nightmare Records<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">Release Date: 3\/29\/2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Additional Notes\/Comments<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\"><span style=\"color: #502b7b;\">On <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">ReProgram<\/span>, Lance makes many truth-filled, frankly sober, and insightful observations about the state or our minds and our souls within the confines of the flesh and within the physical world where we cohabitate. However, while it is tempting to look \u201cwithin\u201d for the solutions to the behavior of mankind, I believe Christ teaches us that although our \u201cself\u201d is capable of doing good (we were, after all, created to worship and glorify Him), in the absence of the Spirit\u2019s intervention we often make the wrong choices, leading to the devastation of \u201cself\u201d and others. We live in culture that is far too focused on \u201cme\u201d and \u201cself.\u201d But I do value what Lance is trying to convey here, that the world we see around us \u2013 if we are bound by its laws and rules \u2013 blinds us to a form of slavery we can never escape and can honestly be all too content to accept. I applaud him for \u201ccalling\u201d us out of that slavery, and for encouraging us to think beyond the confines of the physical. While I may disagree with some of his means by which that freedom is attained, I greatly appreciate his efforts and exhortations. In a society that has become increasingly \u201cmindless,\u201d I think it takes a lot of courage for an artist to release music these days with this kind of challenging and thought-provoking confrontation. And, to do so with the musical credibility and chops to make it entertaining, enjoyable and uplifting is just a testament to his integrity as an artist.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_8\">Tracklist:<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\">\n<p class=\"font_9\">1.
