PRESS RELEASE:
LION MUSIC is proud to announce “Myst of Lyriad”, the new album from progressive rock / metal group, Thought Chamber.
The core band is the same as TC’s previous “Psykerion” record, featuring composer & guitarist Michael Harris (also Arch Rival, Darkology, Vitalij Kuprij, solo artist for 35+ yrs; Michael has written 20 albums of globally released music); Bill Jenkins on keyboards (also in Enchant); Mike Haid, drummer extraordinaire from metal to jazz (formerly of David Chastain & Michael Harris solo records); and Jeff Plant on bass (Jimi Tunnell; Vast Conduit: Marcelo Berestovoy). The album features multiple lead vocalists, including Travis Wills (of Crimson Glory), Devon Graves (Psychotic Waltz), and John Jaycee Cuijpers (Trans-Siberian Orchestra). Stylistically, “Myst of Lyriad” ranges from prog rock (with much acoustic) to prog metal, using the band’s signature “interplay” sound, dividing up riffs and solos back & forth rapidly between the instruments. The 10 track opus begins with the epic length title song (which is a continuation of the “Psykerion” story), with the rest of the record continuing with the tracks “Identity Theft”, “New Dawn Sun Ride”, “Rainless”, “Here Upon This Earth”, “Shine Again”, “Digitized”, “A Qwinkle In Time”, “Nyctophobia”, and “Leaving Lyriad”. A bonus track is also available.
