The halfway mark of the song is an arpeggiated synth riff in the 11/8 time signature, that has the likes of Brad Fiedel’s score to 1984’s sci-fi/horror classic, The Terminator.

This is not a Geddy Lee vocal, no sir, it's one that could compare with the greatest of the greats: Robert Plant, Steve Perry, Klaus Meine (The Scorpions), and, of course, Ozzie.

II,” an 18 minute space opera that tells the tale as old as time – the battle between good and evil.

Recorded at Universal's studio in Toronto with producer David Bottrill (Rush, Muse, Tool, Mastodon), Crown Lands' new album, Fearless, creates a world you want to spend time in. But there's a storytelling format within the multi-part suite that just really captures our imagination. Nine tapestries of tone, where atmospheric swathes morph into strident guitars, dextrous polyrhythms and gnarly basslines – Bowles’ strange, beautiful tenor soaring over the top like a bird over a mythological land.Practice and emulation pays off for self-described Rush worshippers Kevin Comeau and Cody Bowles with this, the closest I've ever heard to capturing the purity and distinctiveness of Rush's great 2112.

The opening piano notes hint at something slightly different, a hint that is fully realised as the track develops. This dynamic duo has really shown us that they don’t need to be “accessible” or “radio friendly”; rather they strive to create enlightening and entertaining music that reaches audience not only through their music, but also their mission.I" (7:49) I like the chance for Kevin to to showcase his bass and guitar skills on this one, otherwise, I'm not sure how this song serves to "set up" the context of who Fearless is and what s/he stands for. Through their music, Crown Lands wants to raise awareness of the long-term effects of this colonization and give a voice to their community of indigenous peoples. With all the garbage out there it's refreshing to hear some great music again, said the 73 year old rocker. I was very interested in this band upon hearing their name because I could guess they were Canadian. Virtuoso and engaging Canadian duo – guitarist/bassist/keys player Kevin Comeau and singer/drummer Cody Bowles - fuse pomp, pop and rock on brilliant 2nd LP.
