Impermanent Resonance (Limited)

James LaBrie is an artist with a busy schedule but his solo activities should certainly not be perceived as mere side-note activity between Dream Theater releases. "Impermanent Resonance" was conceived together with LaBrie's songwriting partner Matt Guillory, who also handled all of the keyboard recordings as well as background vocals. Just like on the previous album release, "Static Impulse", Marco Sfogli from Italy masterfully tracked all of the guitars, bass duties were taken care of by Ray Riendeau (Halford, Machines of Loving Grace) and Swedish drummer extraordinaire Peter Wildoer. This solidified line-up for James LaBrie's releases doesn't only help the musical chemistry shine through fully, it also adds an unmistakable evenness in the stylistic approach to be found throughout "Impermanent Resonance". It substantially and neatly continues the eventful musical ride for all those who enjoyed the dynamic, extremely fresh and very powerful attitude already found on "Static Impulse".

James LaBrie comments about "Impermanent Resonance" as follows: "To me this album incorporates and continues with the styles and musical direction that we have created with the previous releases. The difference being that the music on this disc is to me a true telling of the songs evolving and taking on a sense of identity that is every band's ultimate goal. It is powerful, memorable, hook-driven and above all extremely musical. It shows how the writing and the band itself have matured. I truly feel that this is our quintessential album."
