After the review of the masterpiece of the WET I feel duty-bound to analyze the groups who provided the letters of the acronym. We begin of course by "W." with the Swedish Work Of Art, created in 1992 by the guitarist guitarist Robert Sall (who participated in the project WET) and drummer Herman Furin. With that in mind a melodic rock inspired by Journey and Toto, the two are desperate for a singer to fit their vision. The producer Lars Säfsund, after hearing some of the songs on "Artwork" decides to lend her voice to the amazing project. The strength of this debut album (it took them sixteen years ... congratulations on your perseverance!) Is not the original, to say the truth may well be a disk Lukather and partners, but the mastery of composition and involvement that give the twelve songs during fifty-two minutes you would like to never end. "Why Do I?" opens the disc in the best way: melodic, powerful, magical, immediate and unforgettable. Better was not possible. Really. I was lying. Wow.
Following a "Mary" romantic and dreamy, for ever indebted to a certain "Georgy Porgy," but once again a masterpiece. 
"Camelia" continues in the same direction with its riffs and its carpet funkeggiante keyboard that makes the difference, and then explode in the chorus blatantly ... Toto. If you have not understood, these guys are the reincarnation. After two mid
time you get to ride "Her Only Lie ", with its overwhelming power. Memorable chorus that is printed immediately to mind right away. Madonna is" Too Late "! After the opener the best episode of the disc! Riff much more original than the previous tracks and feeling a go go. Spectacular. "Camelia" continues in the same direction with its riffs and its carpet funkeggiante keyboard that makes the difference, and then explode in the chorus blatantly ... Toto. If you have not understood, these guys are the reincarnation. After two mid 
Party soft and atmospheric song most blatantly 'inspired' to Toto, "Whenever U Sleep." The piano, though relegated to second place on guitars, is the master and Work Of Art give us another piece chain. was the hour of ballatona, placed with skill and simply irresistible. "Once In A Lifetime" is like a caress made with a rose petal (I never thought of writing something like that first I heard 'song is!), romantic and, again, perfect. follows the daring "Peace Of Mind" that she could easily be the soundtrack of Rocky at random! A progressive features (a little) and sometimes from stage (a lot), involves great.
way for the more massive rock with "Lost Without Your Love", where for the first time I can say that the keyboard penalizes the overall result of the song, which covers over a riff really nice, especially during the riff. Remains the same as a great piece, even with this small flaw. Cori
ball in the opening funky song "Like No Other", bubbly episode that reveals once and for all the mastery of these three young Swedes.
"Cover Me" is a rock song in effect, putting aside the AOR side that has come out so far and releasing all the energy of the trio.
After this adrenaline rush closes with "One Hour", vaguely oriental and structure that displaces, since it opens with a bad riffone, calms down with a verse and sweet in its own way, experimental and finally explodes into a riff exalted the voice of Säfsund.
The best value of the Work of Art and the compositional mastery worthy of its unmatched Toto, the fatal flaw is that it does not seem to have an identity defined by referring to the band too Lukather and potentially end up labeled as clones. Clone well done, but still clones.
Criticism aside, Work Of Art have class, style, words have the balls cubic.
If they were able to begin before 2008 probably today would be an important name in the European AOR scene, and why not, worldwide.
