CD REVIEW: THE GRAND DESIGN by Khymera




THE GRAND DESIGN by Khymera
(Frontier Records)

'The Grand Design' the latest release from AOR sensation, Khymera is an absolute gem. There is no filler at all! The whole thing is just a stellar combination of great songwriting, awesome playing, and incredible production quality. The band is comprised of Dennis Ward: bass guitar and lead vocals, Felix Michael Klein: guitars, Eric Ragno: keyboards, Jim Rybkost: piano, additional keyboards and Bohnke: drums. There are some great melodies here and some very sweet keyboard work. The songs are full of melody and hooks and rock enough to satisfy fans of this music. Album highlights, melodic gems, "Never Give Up On You", "Tell Me Something" and "Night To Remember". For the romantic of heart the band offer up, "Streetlights" and the album closer, "Where Is The Love". Hats off to Dennis Ward for an excellent job in the vocal and production department. Overall, 'The Grand Design' is simply a great melodic rock album front to back. An essential listen for anyone that loves the band's self titled debut and is highly recommended to fans of intense melodic rock. -  Highly Recommended
