Description
Sketches From the Thought Chamber, Michael’s first solo release of the new millennium, shed new light on his compositional skills and versatility with an amazing collection of songs ranging from the metal meets jazz insanity of “Prognosis” to the twisted fusion elements of “Neuro-Tranzmitter”, onto the subtle beauty of “A Soul’s Torment”.
The album boasts phenomenal musicianship as usual, from Adam Nitti’s bass work to the drum talents of both Michael’s brother Brian and Thought Chamber’s Mike Haid, along with King Diamond’s Matt Thompson on a tune, and Michael himself producing some of his best solos ever.
Well known music critic, Martin Popoff praised “SFTTC”, calling it “gothic fusion” and claiming it to be “the man’s most fluid, hi-fidelity, yet versatile record” with “King Crimson signatures”, and Nicky Baldrian of Nikammusic Productions hailed Sketches as as “one of the most amazing guitar albums ever.”
