Corvus Stone has some nice new reviews of their debut album "Corvus Stone" (Melodic Revolution Records).

Even though each musician is allowed a lot of creative freedom on the album, the jams and solos are always melodic and tasteful, never leaning towards any pretentiousness; a lethal trap,when dealing with this caliber of music and musicians".

There are some masterful tracks on offer, and Corvus Stone blend many genres to form one incredible album. The passion of the musicians as they play together is infectious, and it is a joyous labour of love from beginning to end. I was delighted that the band were able to create such a dynamic sound, that is highly innovative and brimming over with virtuoso skill".- (Review by AtomicCrimsonRush)
Get Ready To ROCK!

(Alan Jones) tells: "I do a radio show for Get Ready To Rock Radio (third Sunday of the month at 5pm -you should check it out!) that goes by the name of ‘The Eclectic Mix’ – which pretty much does what it says on the tin and draws together a load of great tracks from an assortment of genres.
For the next show I think I’ll save myself the effort of compiling a tracklist and just play this album in its entirety".
Corvus Stone is an international Rock band strongly related to Progressive Rock and Hard Rock. You can also hear some World Music, Classical, Soundtrack, Jazz and Metal!
Corvus Stone is: Colin Tench (guitar), Pasi Koivu (keyboards), Petri Lemmy Lindström (bass), Robert Wolff (drums), Blake Carpenter (vocals) and Sonia Mota (artwork).
On the debut album there also some fantastic special guests like Stef Flaming (different instruments and voices), Victor Tassone (drums) and John Culley (guitar).
On the new song "Purple Stone" (to be featured on the forthcoming Corvus Stone album) there's a wonderful special guest Andres Guazzelli (vocals). "Purple Stone" is a some kind of tribute to the great Deep Purple.
We give a last word to Alan Jones: "There are just so many influences here that it’s difficult to take it all in at one sitting. You think you’re listening to Camel, this segues into an Emerson, Lake and Palmer groove, but then is that Focus I hear? Or a bit of Gentle Giant? Maybe even a soupcon of the Grateful Dead. But that’s definitely the Bonzo Dog Band – then the riff from ‘Smoke On The Water’ appears for chrissakes.
To say the album sustains interest throughout is understating just what it is – that being a genre-bending tour de force that has the listener eagerly anticipating the next track to find out if it’s as great as the one being listened to".
