Project Creation is the brainchild of Portuguese multi-instrumentalist Hugo Flores. "Dawn on Pyther" is the second chapter in an ongoing series of concept albums, the first being "The Floating World" released in 2005.

Musically this is a wild mix of ambient moods, atmospheric metal and prog metal; at times spiced with folk influences. The music scores high on melodramatic and epic moods; with layers of synths, dark-tinged synth sounds and epic guitars lay the foundation for the dramatics; and the vocals from male and female vocalists alike strengthening the melodramatic feel even further.

Concept album, sci-fi story and bombastic melodrama does make this sound a bit like Ayreon; and the similarities are certainly there. This music is more complex; but should appeal to the same crowd.
