The Astral Factor is the stunning new album from Waterclime, a new project led by Vintersorg main man Mr V. Combining the very best elements of traditional progressive and symphonic rock filtered through a Nordic mind with Scandinavian folk tones and at times a jazzy ambient atmosphere. The Astral Factor yields a highly individualistic sound that will appeal to a wide cross section of rock fans. The music of The Astral Factor comes together with a subliminal and spiritual feel and mixes several genres with many different musical elements. The strong melodies displayed consist of long sequences twisting and turning between major and minor scales. The symphonic approach of the album is quite exposed using strings, bells and other orchestral instruments taking it into this arena. This is mixed up with the diversity of organ, mellotron and flutes. Waterclime's The Astral Factor is an eclectic and original work of musical art that will reward those that allow its music into their mind. Progressive/Heavy Metal, total running time, 43:18 - Waterclime @ iTunes!
