Headspace [PA] - Pulse Ultra

The band was originally formed by childhood friends guitarist Dominic Cifarelli and bassist Jeff Feldman, who after some changes to the band's line-up after a short break-up in 1997 brought on drummer Maxx Zinno and vocalist Vizza. unfortunately i read a couple of months ago on the band's website that Vizza had departed the band due to musical differences. this is a shame because i rather enjoyed his vocal styles on this album and to this day im ...

anyway. i first heard Pulse ultra a couple of years ago supporting Taproot. i was blown away by this act as usually i find the support acts for small gigs rather unentertaining.

the album consists of 14 tracks of pure musical delight in my opinion. It starts with the hard-driven tempo of "Acceptance (Phase 1)" and continues with this welcome sound to the beautiful acoustic intro of the album's closer "Despo" ... more

Songs like "Finding My Place" and "Big Brother" are psychological pieces, as one talks about the worries we all have in whether we will be a failure or a success, while the latter deals with the idea of being caged and having your independence taken

But even more than the lyrics, I just love the music that Pulse Ultra has created on Headspace. The musical compositions are dynamic giving them a living, breathing quality that so much of today's stale music lacks.

i can honestly tell you that this album is rather unique and allthough im uncertain of the bands future im sure if they release any further material it will be of the same, if not better standard.

If you are bored of listening to the same mainstream rock and metal then i stringly suggest you at least check this band out. for all you know you might deeply enjoy this album as i did.
