Album Review
Long-running British prog metal outfit Threshold return with their eighth album, providing yet more of what fans expect, along with a few minor changeups such as the unexpectedly funky beat propelling the early standout "Disappear" and the techno synths underpinning "Hollow." Singer Andrew McDermott has a clean, almost old-fashioned voice with perfect diction not only on the power ballad centerpiece "Pilot in the Sky of Dreams" but on those tracks that would normally require a rougher sound. Posh vocals or not, Dead Reckoning is of that aggressively tasteful school of metal that never breaks into full-on showboating excess or noisy violence. It's metal for people who wish Marillion had occasionally gone into Dio territory, or that Talk Talk and Queensrÿche had collaborated. Those outside that target demographic will likely remain unimpressed.
Customer Reviews
Threshold's best
This album works as a great example of everything good about Threshold. They are a prog metal band, but their songs have a really sharp and concise quality to them, made up of heavy riffs and catchy melodies. The song 'Slipstream' shows this to great effect, while 'Hollow' has a brilliant funk-metal edge to it, demonstating the band's versatility. This album also houses Threshold's greatest ever song: 'Pilot in the Sky of Dreams': A ballad/driving rock song that has it all. It is encouraging to see a band like Threshold, who have been in existence since the eighties, hitting a peak with their most recent album. 'Dead Reckoning' is a must for anyone who wants melodic metal performed with great style and individuality.
