I'd have to agree - easily one of your best and thoroughly enjoyable.
Nice melodic playing and a really powerful backing.
Great stuff!

Sergio,
Absolutely one of your best! I love the chunky rock feel of this track. The backing RTs sound great and your Gretsch is outstanding...
Excellent!

Sergio,
YES! This IS your best, I agree, too...
The distorted guitar works perfectly for this - and a really nice backing track to carry it. Nicely played. The simple drum break works well, too.
Good mix. An excellent listen.

Welcome back, Sergio! I love the progressive rock edge here. I'm almost getting a King Crimson sort of vibe on this one - and that is absolutely a compliment! Wonderful progressions too, and some wicked playing to boot. Great work & thanks for sharing 
Cheers,
Deryk

Wow! I agree with Dreyk regarding the King Crimson feel (a band I saw at a 1970 festival).
The work you must have put into this really shows with the write, the arrangement and of course your great playing. The little drum break is cool also.
This is a memorable track that we immediately wanted to listen to again.
Outstanding!!

I really enjoyed this instrumental! I also really dig the name choice for the song. Atlantis always fascinated me.
Really good, though! I really enjoyed what you did with this particular song.

Powerful Sergio! Those dirty chugging guitars really drive and your playing carries lots of emotion... reminds me of Neil Young in his Live Rust phase.
Very, very good!

Sergio.. This is a style that I would probably never choose, but I am happy that I listened to this track, because it helps me expand my thinking about how I can use unfamiliar styles.. You did a tremendous job with this one.. I especially like how, around the 2:00 mark you seemed to double your solo guitar with the other instruments.. and you used the BIAB tools, like section changes, perfectly. I'll be looking forward to hearing more!!

It's a cool thing Sergio though I found the mix placing the melody to a side was odd and a little unbalanced as a result.
There's a CK RED style progression starting around 1.53 that becomes more so as it moved along the fret board.
To get a closer KC vibe I'd recommend using the Mel9 pedal it'd REALLy push this into KC territory.
Cheers

Great dirty rocking sound gives the darkish melody really nice haunting mood. I can feel Atlantis sinking into the waves of the ocean. I like the drum break.

Hi Sergio, though rock has never be my cup of tea i appreciate good music when I hear it. The effort on this one is outstanding, so is your playing. I can see this tune used in some action movie background.
