Radio, Sundays at 22:00 GMT, repeated on Mondays and Fridays), when he invites listeners to ‘Assume The Position’. Plenty of melody, strong choruses and the wonderful vocals of Lars Säfsund. You can’t really go wrong when two talents in the Scandi melodic rock scene combine as on here. Hopefully Grand Illusion and Work Of Art will continue alongside Art Of Illusion, as there is easily room for all three, especially as they are more studio based projects and not always on tour. Very theatrical and perhaps the work Lars Säfsund has done with Disney rubs off on this song?
There are a couple of bizarre musical offerings, ‘Waltz For The Movies’ recalls cult prog/pomp band A.C.T. ‘Let The Games Begin’ mixes pomp and AOR to good effect, reminiscent of Robbie Valentine with lots thrown into the mix musically, and a again emphasis on the vocals and their arrangements. They can rock out too, just listen to the fast paced ‘Go’ which features some top guitar soloing. There are shades of Toto on ‘Run’, then on ‘Snakebite Charm’ you have a neat piece of modern melodic rock – definite shades of Grand Illusion’s love of backing vocal arrangements on here. Trendy design template with glitch distortion effect. Amazing 3D Draw Video Op art lessons, Illusion drawings. Cyberpunk vector background with horizontal distorted lines. Anders Rydholm is no slouch either having worked with Overland, Seikima II and Japanese artist Demon Kakka. See more ideas about optical illusions, illusions, illusion art. Lars Säfsund is well known in melodic rock circles not only for Work Of Art but also for his singing with Lionville and Enbound. This is the debut album by Art Of Illusion, a duo consisting of composer and producer Anders Rydholm (Grand Illusion) and singer Lars Säfsund (Work Of Art) – see what they did there with the band name? Very good chaps! Just be assured that this is a quality piece of work.Share the post "Album review: ART OF ILLUSION – X Marks The Spot" I won’t make a point of highlighting any particular songs as id like the listener to hear it fresh start to finish. There is a good dose of piano and some sentimental ballads, but also a few driving guitar tracks.Īll in all it is quite the mix, but the superb quality of the songs and the performances make it work cohesively. There’s Queen, ELO and Styx influences throughout.īut it isn’t every track – its mixed in and around some traditional WOA style keyboard-AOR mixed in with some typical Grand Illusion pomp. Lars is extraordinary in his varied vocal delivery. It’s part classic rock opera and part falsetto overture and it sounds so good. There are a few tracks that are completely bananas. Fans of Grand Illusion can hear Anders’ trademark pomp AOR all over this record and there are a few tracks which could easily be Grand Illusion tracks.īut there’s so much more on offer here. In American art history, Charles Willson Peales Artist in His Museum traditionally marks the end of an era (Plate 1). Illusion is one of my favourite pomp songwriters, Grand Illusion’s songwriter/producer Anders Rydholm. It has everything I love about the two principles behind it and a added freshness that has been missing in some recent AOR releases.Īrt is Work Of Art – that is, vocalist Lars Safsund, who is his usual blindingly good self, delivering a classic vocal that gives me the best of WOA, but more so, I hear him stretching out with some of the more adventurous material on offer and he knocks it out of the park.
