With their fourth album, CLONES navels further from their metallic hardness towards rock. So they should make it finally let their shadow life behind and step into her own spotlight.
The move was not unexpected. Already the last EP "The Eye Of Needle" presented the progressive sound of the French far out bremster, but much more complex, and as yet the atmospheric heavy metal outworks. A development that also continues the new album "The Dreamer's Hideaway" consistently. Without denying their roots CLONES have managed to conduct their compositions even closer and more direct to get in shape. What in his description certainly applies to explain sounds complex, set to music in his way very straight forward and easy access. The French, however, not to use the structures of pop, but their songs skillfully steer towards the progressive rock and alternative. The final product sounds like this, when GOJIRA would operate on the creativity of PERFECT CIRCLE.
Musically, all items pull together and finish the music through their extraordinary skills to a rare audible perfection. Anyone who takes the trouble and its concentration is only an instrument dedicated, rewarded with spectacular moments. Especially the bass playing of Jean Etienne Maillard delivers oodles outstanding melodies. Only the track "Siren's Song" is arranged almost perfectly and belongs in its entirety to the best that has brought the genre of progressive rock this year out. Of course there should also not the vocal abilities of Yann Ligner go unmentioned that lends his distinctive voice to the overall sound, the necessary heat.
Since CLONES musically moving at a very high level, they had to forgive, that they can not on compositional level permanently shine except songs.
Finally, it should "The Dreamer's Hideaway" for CLONES but finally be the album that they will pave the way to a great future.
