Bio:

Mystery (stylized as MYSTERY) is a Canadian progressive rock band formed in 1986 by multi-instrumentalist Michel St-Père. Mystery's current line-up is St-Père and singer Jean Pageau, with touring musicians Benoît Dupuis, François Fournier, Sylvain Moineau and Jean-Sébastien Goyette.The group has been together for twenty years, but there's two clear phases in the band's history; the 90s with original singer Gary Savoie, and their new millennium Neo Prog era with vocalist Benoit David (in YES as well).The album posted here was a retrospective of the early years, now Mystery is presenting "Unveil The Mystery", covering the recent period starting in 2007.Mystery's progressive style is strongly impregnated by Melodic Rock / AOR waves, turning more 'easy', neo-prog with the material included into this CD.Ever the years, the band leaded by talented guitarist and composed Michel St-Pere has evolved from melodies inspied by Styx and Asia to more adventurous neo prog like that of Rush, Saga and even Journey, but featuring delicate acoustic passages not normally heard from these two.Mystery won't dazzle you with technical prowess but you will appreciate their strong melodies, elegant arrangements and attention to detail.And we have the velvety vocals of Benoit David. In 2008 David became the lead singer of Yes (as well as Mystery) filling in for Jon Anderson. This helped the band reach a wider audience. Not in vain Yes chosen Benoit David as vocalist, he steals the show here on many of the songs.There's not a single weak song on this disc, always interesting and propelled by heavenly melodies.One of my favorites is the prog pageantry of "Pride". The piece runs the gamut from reflective to rocking enhanced with soaring guitar leads throughout."Dear Someone" is expansive and expressive with engaging changes and strong solos. "Time Goes By" is stark at first then builds up to the catchy hook and continues to ebb and flow in its sentiments and speeds.Musically, Mystery is an incredibly very well balanced band that can be enjoyed by any audience. There's something for everyone here; elegance, hooks, beautiful acoustic passages and excellent vocals."Unveil The Mystery" is a proper compendium of one of the most underrated and ignored Melodic Neo Prog bands from Canada (perhaps because they are from the 'French side' of the country).The ideal way to discover the music and passion of Mystery. With a new album gaining rave reviews it was agreed to assemble a live band consisting of both David and St-Père along with touring members Benoît Dupuis (keyboards), François Fournier (bass guitars), Sylvain Moineau (guitars) and Jean-Sébastien Goyette (drums). With a touring band in place, 2013 would prove to be a year of much travel with Mystery performing live monthly and for the first time outside of Canada. Concert dates took them to Mexico, the Netherlands and the UK. There is an old adage that says, “That which doesn’t kill you, only makes you stronger,” and certainly that would apply to Mystery. Their past may have been full of personnel upheaval and sadness and yet out of all that turmoil Mystery have evolved into one of the symphonic progressive rock genres leading bands. They have gone from strength to strength and continue to gain fans around the world with their classic sound and yet as they enter their 28th year of existence they still have much to prove and more music to write. Clearly the story is far from over.

Album:

We featured here many albums from one of the best Melodic Neo Prog bands from the last twenty years, Canadians MYSTERY. Now, the group, after many requests from fans and collectors, has remixed and reissued their debut album "Theatre Of The Mind [2018 Edition Remixed +1]", for years impossible to find.And this are great news, because this CD is strongly impregnated by Melodic Rock / AOR waves. In fact, "Theatre Of The Mind" is more AOR than proggy, akin Journey's 'Trial By Fire'.Mystery got some major press some years ago when Benoit David became the lead singer for YES. But at the early stages of the band there was other vocalist; Gary Savoie. When first hear him many years ago I was struck by his voice, absolutely one on one with Steve Perry, same tone and same color.While "Theatre Of The Mind" has a light progressive heart (early Journey do so), the overall production style, the guitar riffs, the synths and the crystal clear tenor vocals of Savoie brings to mind Journey's last album with Steve Perry, Asia, GTR, and a bit of country fellas Saga.The album begins very strong with the title track where each musician shine, very good piece showing that Mystery know to handle the instruments very well and the arrangements are mature for a band's debut.'Lonely Heart' is pure Journey-like melodic rock midtempo, 'Peace of Mind' adds acoustic to the mix but later grow-up wonderfully, 'Black Roses' showcases some terrific interplay, while 'The Inner Journey' creates fantastic atmospheres.I remember hearing a cassette copy of this (then) hard to find album, and if memory doesn't fails, this 2018 remix / remaster has turned things much more melodic and polished, plus the excellent bonus track "Heart of Stone".Mystery's "Theatre Of The Mind [2018 Edition Remixed +1]" will surprise you, and if you love classic Journey, do yourself a favor and grab a copy NOW.
