Review by Tony Cannella

Heretic’s Dream is an Italian Gothic/Progressive metal outfit currently based in the U.K. Their debut album – which was released in 2012 – showcases the experimental nature of the band. Heretic’s Dream is fronted by the talented vocals of Francesca Di Ventura.

“Forgiveness” begins things and starts off slow before a nice, up-tempo riff and a galloping rhythm joins in. The guitar riff is prevalent throughout the entire track and along with the angelic vocals of Francesca Di Ventura; it all combines for a solid opener. “She Said” is the next track and features a slower tempo than the previous one – still, this turned out to be another highlight. Other highlights include: “A Kiss From the Sun”, “Golden Cage” and “A Question of Coincidences”. The whole thing is brought to an interesting conclusion with the instrumental, “Hollow”.

Even though this is an instrumental, this is a perfect example of how eclectic this band can be, and one of my favorite tracks. This is really something unique. If Gothic Metal with some progressive overtones sounds interesting to you than “The Unexpected Move” by Heretic’s Dream is definitely something worth exploring.

Rating – 75/100
