Faraz Review of "Abstract Point Of View" @ iTunes By: Wayne Klinger ll I have to say for this release is "WOW!". Serious Prog/Fusion cohesion here with the amazing unorthodox, against-the-grain songwriting and making this all blend together as far as alot of atmospheric soundscapes, effects, vocal sniplets and great rhythmic structurings. The best painted picture I can possibly give you is something along the lines of taking Jason Becker, Alan Holdsworth, Steve Vai, Dave Uhrich, Ronnie Montrose and John Petrucci, put all their songwriting and musicmanship skills into one person and you have this Faraz Anwar entity. This guy is just genius as far as creativity goes and originality is an understatement. This stuff is so outside the boundaries of musical comprehension that you just can't second-guess what this guy will do next. It's early yet in the year but this is definately one of the best releases I've heard this year. I have no idea where Lion Music finds these players but thumbs up and a case of beer to these guys and Faraz! © Wayne Klinger / Quintessence Through The Passage Of Time Maze Prophet Don't Ever Let Your Spirit Die Last Summer Why?
