Odd Dimension - The Blue Dawn (2021)

Progressive metal power force Odd Dimension has revealed the details of a long-awaited third album, "The Blue Dawn". Following the critically acclaimed "The Last Embrace To Humanity" (2013), which left a permanent mark on the international progressive metal scene, "The Blue Dawn" marks a turning point in Odd Dimension's career: the band sounds more mature and expressive than ever, courtesy of the valuable contribution of the new members and some international special guests, including Derek Sherinian (of Dream Theater, Black Country Communion and Sons Of Apollo fame) and Roberto Tiranti (Labÿrinth). But it's musically and conceptually that the band went through the most outstanding evolution, from the early philosophical & humanistic topics to a more practical and concrete orientation, which conceives music as a cure for their fears and a catalyst of desires. "The Blue Dawn" is, in fact, an intriguing existential sci-fi concept album in the vein of Rush's "2112", which is beautifully portrayed by the cover artwork of none other than renowned artist Gustavo Sazes (Angra, DGM, Firewind, James LaBrie). Heart and brain, passion and rationality, progressive and metal!
