Both Jeffrey and David are both progressive rock fans, but on this
album they are trying to do more straightforward pop and hard
rock. The music is rather commercial, yet musically skilled, with
rather good vocals. I would call it melodic guitar oriented
progressive metal with neo-classical influences.
The music is a mix between Yngwie Malmsteen, Queensryche, Dream
Theater and Rush. The difference between J.R.S. and the
aforementioned groups, are that J.R.S. don't show off as much.
The opening neo-classical track "Intro" would appeal to fans of
Yngwie Malmsteen. "Living" is the best track and it's got a Prog
Metal touch to it. The track "Homeland" could have been a track
written by Rush with a typical Rush guitar riff.
This is a very good album that won't leave you disappointed.
