Muse are an alternative rock/space rock/progressive rock Band. Their sounds mixing the electronic music, hard rock, experimental rock, classical music and rock opera.
We can say that Wood of Light are one of Bands like Muse: infact “Wood of Light’s music is very light on “shredding” and focuses mostly on groove, mood, heavy textures and melodies mixed in with some gorgeous, ethereal keyboards (mostly piano) and Simone Colman’s beautiful, melancholy voice.” (progmetalzone.com)
“The search of a new and personal sound brought to drastic stylistic choices: the long instrumental parts, typical of progressive music, have been reduced to the essential or even deleted, the songs were deliberately written to have a short length, the solos were object of “emotional” study rather than “technical”.
The end result is a progressive style that, despite the obvious metal similarities, tries to overlook pop music.
We wanted to play with elegant contrasts between refined music and accessible melodic lines, stylistic choice adopted mainly for the chorus, or for some instrumental parts where metal rhythms “support” catchy funky/ jazz melodies.” (about Feelikescaping)
