Described loosely a concept album dealing with how the listener relates to humanity and the battles fought inside the mind, preconceptions are mounting. There are the characteristic changes in tempo, time signature and mood, but these seem to flow seamlessly without appearing awkward or contrived.
Close scrutiny of these tracks does not give the listener this impression in the least however, rather, a carefully considered, cohesive concept. Every element of the bands influences shine through on this piece, with sections that are reminiscent of classic Yes and Rush. It is, if you can excuse the pun, a heady brew too. The musical depth is matched by the ideas behind the eight songs that make up I Am Anonymous. Any band that starts with the Kubler-Ross model the theory constructed by Swiss-American psychiatrist Elisabeth Kubler-Ross to explain the five stages of grief and goes on to explore themes of war and chaos as Headspace explore the machinations of the human psyche is toying with strong stuff indeed.
Power ballads these are not! However such mind-boggling topics are made easier to digest when it comes to the music. Perhaps a bit too brash and self-assured for some, who retreated to the bar in the face of such a brazen display of showmanship, but certainly one of the very few bands of this genre with the evident ability from the off to undertake such a task.
It goes without saying that the five members of Headspace carry with them some weighty pedigree themselves. I Am Anonymous Headspace. Copy the following link to share it Copy. You are currently listening to samples.
