O’s Notes: Mass suggests that this is a spiritual effort and the organ and choir echo that but the driving rock fusion accompaniment challenges that theory. This set emanates from the walls within a cathedral and sometimes the sound is downright eerie. The music is driving, electric acid rock with distorted guitars and heavy punctuated beats led by drummer Bobby Previte. Reed Mathis (b), Marco Benevento (organ), Stephen O’Malley (g), Jamie Saft (g), Don McGreevy (g) and the voices of The Rose Ensemble join Previte. This is an unusual and intriguing experience for a select group of progressive listeners.
