VOYAGER's peculiar and unique sound merges Amorphis’
thirst for melody, Soilwork’s heaviness and the crystal vocal clarity of A-Ha’s
Morton Harket into a sound all their own. The Meaning of Iwas
released in October via Sensory Records, in conjunction with the band's
ultra-successful first tour on North American soil alongside labelmates
Creation's End, including their stellar performance at ProgPower USA.
Interviews with VOYAGER are still available
in advance of the upcoming tour, in addition to in-person at the forthcoming
concerts alongside Rhapsody Of Fire.
"...We’re now officially past the point where
Voyager was the best-kept secret in progressive metal. 9.5/10" - Hardrock
Haven
"There are so many little nuances going on on in
every song that it makes this a treat to listen to... Definite top five
contender of the year. 9.5/10" - Hellbound
"...Voyager is here to stay and they are bringing
FUN back to Prog Metal! 9.5/10" - The Metal Pit
"...an amazing album without a single dull moment
anywhere in its entirety. 9.5/10" - Metal Delirium
"...the overarching theme is a simple underlying
motif: very catchy melodic rock, and sometimes bordering on metal, in enigmatic
prog wrapper. 5/5" - Dangerdog Music Reviews
"This album proves the heart of the genre still lies
in experimentation honed down to cohesive, memorable songs. 8/10" -
Blistering
"The Meaning of I is another winner from the band
and Sensory, so if you are a progressive metal fan this one needs to be on your
immediate radar. 4/5" - Sea of Tranquility
"...as their strong songwriting skills collide with
their chops, dynamic results spark, where it does not take too much convincing
to the fact that these guys are one of the big strongpoints of modern prog
metal. 4/5" - Ytsejam
