| About the Music... Definitely in the tradition of the big prog-bands like Yes, Fates Warning and Dream Theater, the music of conXious lacks the bombastic keyboard arrangements, that go with this kind of music. It is pure guitar-rock, even if a little tricky and sophisticated, mixed with many other styles of music and influences. |
