I was hoping Poland’s Indukti would change my mind toward Prog Metal. In fact, I was open to it. And, at their best, they were reminiscent of an instrumental Anekdoten, but much crunchier.
Wawrzyniec Dramowicz’s drumming was this groups best feature, verging on the melodic. Piotr Kocimski and Maciej Jaskiewicz crunched away on guitar, providing power-chord rhythms, but little melody or dexterous soling. The violin provided for atmosphere, but Ewa Jablonska just gave one good solo toward the end of the set.
In the end, they did not change my mind toward prog metal. They just left my ears buzzing and my blood pumping with adrenaline. But then, any decent alarm clock can do that.
