Rendezvous Point's third album, "Dream Chaser," is an ideal showcase of progressive metal that stands out for its perfect balance of heaviness and melody/accessibility. From Norway, this band has crafted an album that spans 37 minutes across eight tracks, making it an ideal addition to Prog Radio’s rotation. Each song on the album demonstrates the band's skill in blending intricate rhythms and complex structures with accessible and memorable melodies.

The album kicks off with the single “Don’t Look Up,” which we’ve been playing for a bit now on Prog Radio—an energetic opener that sets the tone for what's to come. The instrumentation is tight and powerful, with the guitars and drums creating a robust foundation for the soaring vocals. Throughout the album, the band maintains a consistent level of intensity while exploring different moods and textures, keeping the listener engaged from start to finish.
