ALBUM REVIEW
Joining the ranks of ever more new American prog bands are Tesseract from the Bay Area. Led by keys man, vocalist and guitarist Don Tillman, this quintet serves up a debut brimming with a variety of sounds and styles, ranging from soundscapes to jazzy instrumentals to straight ahead symph-prog. Most of the song writing is fairly linear with the emphasis on the playing. Standing out in the mix is the wonderful violin work of accomplished classical musician Karen Bentley (who guested on the last Camel release) who brings a strong Kansas element to the collection.
