Turtles All The Way Down (D2C Studios/ProgRock Records, 2015)
Turtles All The Way Down is the fifth album by Odin’s Court. Described as a progressive metal act, this band plays primarily heavy metal and some hard rock. Only three pieces venture into real progressive rock: Turtles All The Way Down, Pt. 1, 2 and 3. These three tracks are deeply inspired by Animals and The Wall-era Pink Floyd, with outstanding guitar work.
“On Turtles All the Way Down, our sound is refined with a balance of modern and classic vibes, while still retaining the signature ‘Odin’s Court’ sound,” says multi-instrumentalist and band leader Matt Brookins. “We also have the ‘missing piece’ that completes us – a new vocalist that can bring the emotion and technicality to the music that it deserves. Dimetrius LaFavors’ vocals, combined with the more mature song writing and production, have taken us to the next level.”
Odin’s Court is an American band from Maryland, created by Matt Brookins in 2001. The lineup includes Matt Brookins on vocals, guitars, keyboards; Rick Pierpont on guitars, backing vocals; Dimetrius LaFavors on vocals; Gary Raub on drums, percussion, and backing vocals; Jason Pierpont on bass.
