Circuline - Counterpoint (2016)

The second album from this band from USA.

The band was a sextet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars, keyboards, male and female vocals.

A handful of extra guitarists did the guitar solos on this one hour long album.

I really enjoyed their 2015 debut album Return and reviewed it in one of the first issues of this blog, issue one or two.

Their music is US neo-prog with a lot of folksy americana and prog metal influences. There are also some symphonic prog influences here. Glass Hammer, Mostly Autumn and Spock's Beard springs to mind.

The music is very dynamic with a lot of interesting details created by the guitars, keyboards and vocals.

The music is mostly big, bold and epic. It is also very made in USA where everything is bigger than big..... or Europe.

This one hour long album is a good album. It has a couple of flaws. But at it's best, the music is very good.  

This is another good reason why this band should be checked out. Both their albums, that is.
