DGM - Misplaced (2004)

TRACKLIST:




Artist : DGM
Country : Italy
Release : Misplaced
Year : 2004
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

From the opening guitar melodies of the opening track Living On The Edge, the similarities to Stratovarius' Hunting High And Low immediately come to mind. This track has a great sense of melody, great strong vocals by Titta Tani and musically mixes speedy power metal with some awesome Yngwie inspired lead fills. The use of some synthesizer leads adds a progressive edge but otherwise, this is pretty much a power metal track. Is Hell Without Love? continues with charging and chunky muted power metal and again lots of melody for the chorus section. There's a weird interlude mid-song that seems to be used only to remind the listener that they are in fact still a progressive metal band.

DGM - Hidden Place (2003)

TRACKLIST:




Artist : DGM
Country : Italy
Release : Hidden Place
Year : 2003
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

DGM has shown such amazing improvement with their 4th release, Hidden Place. The band has evolved and created their own sound, escaping the shackles of being a Symphony X rip-off. Although at times the singer Titta Tani sounds a lot like Russell Allen, he has a much broader vocal range. He's can be (but isn't always) more ferocious than Russell, especially on the last track Winter Breeze, in which he shows he can scream with the power of any black metal vocalist. Not only have DGM's vocals improved, but also their production.

Info:

Great Vocals and incredible musicians make this a must for prog metal fans. I pretty much like every song and the whole album makes for a good non stop listen. Stand out tracks for me are: Hereafter, Not In Need and Away. But I think the album is very solid. Fans of Dream Theater, Andromeda, and Serenity should really enjoy this album.

DGM - Dreamland (2001) [Japan Edition]

TRACKLIST:




Artist : DGM
Country : Italy
Release : Dreamland [Japan Edition]
Year : 2001
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320

Info:

Dreamland feautures powerful double bass throughout as well as prevalent use of keyboards. The keyboard layering is quite thick and dynamic, yet gives the overall a nice neoclassical feeling. I am very impressed with the guitar work on this album. Full of interesting and intricate solos and shredding in the background on each and every track, fans of excellent guitar work will not be let down. The many time changes and thick keyboard layering prevent any dull or boring moments from appearing on this disc. It is an interesting listen from beginning to end. DGM does not go for the big hook or huge harmony vocal lines to attract the listeners attention. There are some harmony vocals used (Canticle being a noteworthy example), but they are used sparingly. The band's musical talents are on display throughout (the guitarist rocks!!), and the mature, complex song structures makes for a captivating listen from start to finish. Each track on this album is strong. The band has put their outstanding musical talents to work on each and every track. I like an album that I can play start to finish without skipping tracks, and Dreamland is now one those albums for me.
