ALBUM REVIEW
Fantastic 3rd album. The music on this album is pure symphonic progressive rock in the vein of the bigger bands of the early nineties or think early Pendragon and some Marillion...The current line-up consists of Erwin Boerenkamps (vocals, accoustic guitar), Bart van Helmond (guitars), John van Heugten (keyboards), Maikel van der Meer (drums) and Niels Nijssen (bass guitar). At this moment Ricocher has two releases, the first is the EP "Quest for the Heartland" and the second one is the CD "Cathedral of Emotions". The new release "Chains" will once again prove the importance of melody and stucture that is one of the main pillars in the music of Ricocher... The album differs from the previous two: not only because of the deeper and fuller sound of guitars and voices but also because it's one continuing story in seven songs. The story is about being chained: being misunderstood by friends and relatives and about searching your own best way to act. (Just for Kicks)
