The Source, by Ayreon

The Source

by Ayreon

supported by

gebs Ayreon is firing on all cinematic cylinders - at least for the first half. Bombastic, delightfully cheesy, incredibly varied, and razor sharp. Favorite track: Everybody Dies.

Jordan Vauvert The 'Frame délivre son verdict : sauver la planète des Alpha se fera par l'extermination des Alpha eux-mêmes. Animés par l'énergie du désespoir, dix élus partent vers un nouvel eldorado, une certaine Planète Y. Mais...

Bien qu'étant la chronique d'une tragédie en gestation, The Source est incroyablement énergique et ce même lors des pistes abordant les thèmes les plus lourds ("Everybody Dies", "Run! Apocalypse! Run"). Cynisme cruel ou confiance en l'avenir ? En tout cas, Ayreon reste génial ! Favorite track: Deathcry Of A Race.

kvar One of the best album the 2010s, this album is ambitious and achieves to combine powerful singing lines from awesome singers with very efficient riffs Favorite track: The Day That The World Breaks Down.

Mark Wilhelm If you're trying to understand the full Ayreon story, this is the final chapter. Avoid spoiling yourself by listening to the rest of the albums first. The Source chronologically comes before anything else but logically it is the final piece of the puzzle. Favorite track: Journey To Forever.
