Bio:

Magellan were a progressive metal/rock band formed in San Francisco, California, United States by brothers Trent and Joel Wayne Gardner in 1985.The band's albums featured a number of well-known guest musicians, such as Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull), drummer Joey Franco (Twisted Sister, Van Helsing's Curse), and bassist Tony Levin (King Crimson, Peter Gabriel, Liquid Tension Experiment).In February 2014, Wayne Gardner committed suicide.On June 11, 2016, Trent Gardner also died of undisclosed reasons.

Album:

Magellan’s debut stands as one of my personal favorites from the early 90’s prog-metal scene. This band, leaded by Keyboardist/Vocalist Trent Gardner, mixes classic prog-rock elements àla Yes and Kansas together with metal in an unique and interesting way, especially in the lyrics. Through 43-minutes, Magellan takes you through eight songs about the history of England, like the signing of the magna carta and the union war. Musically very adventurous and epic, without going way overboard though it’s a notably complex album, often dominated by keyboards, but also backed up with an effective use of guitar too. No real drums here, only a drum machine, but it isn’t really a problem since it’s used in an incredibly effective way that it doesn’t sound tiresome at all.The highlight here have to be the fantastic opener “Magna Carta”; a very progressive and dynamic track which stands out as one of Magellan’s best tracks. “The Winner” and “Friends of America” would have been fine single releases, actually, considering their accessibility and shorth lenght. Both tracks are fine too. The rest of the album is very good as well, with the glorious “Union Jack” being a standout of those.Too bad this album is so overlooked and rather forgotten, cause this is an excellent release. Fans of Dream Theater and Shadow Gallery should especially like this. Interested? Give it a try!
