The Memory Of After
Firewall, 2025
8/10
The Florida prog-rock outfit, Myth Of Logic, is spearheaded by Scott G. Davis, who takes inspiration from legends like Genesis, Yes and Rush for these 8 fusion friendly tracks.
“The Memory Of After (Part 1)” opens with atmospheric keys that segue into driving guitar and Louis Alexi’s thumping drums, and “Shadow Box” follows with fluid keys and dreamy singing, where dense bass bouts also enter the pretty yet rugged climate.
“Machine Language” occupies the middle spot and uses grooves atypically via the hard hitting moments and rich instrumentation, while “The Sky Is Falling” enlists David Pate’s strategic sax prowess that adds a jazz like presence to the unpredictable landscape.
Close to the end, “Mercy Paradox” is highly melodic and benefits from Jerry Outlaw’s guitar acrobatics, and “The Memory Of After (Part II)” exits with Tara Jennings’ voice over and Chris Barbosa’s violin adding much ambience to the nearly 20 minutes of busy versus soft gestures.
The idea of Myth Of Logic started in the ‘90s, but wasn’t realized until 2021. However, Davis is making up for lost time with some very progressive and timeless rock, as evidenced by this meticulous effort.
