The third album from this band from Canada.
The band was a quartet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, flute, keyboards and vocals.
Red Sand is a band from the French speaking Quebec area who sings in English. Their music is also neo-prog and not the type of fusion & prog this area is mostly known for.
Red Sand has during many albums got their own sound and fame.
This album has two long epics and two shorter, more catchy songs.
The vocals is really good and ditto for the guitars.
The music is somewhere between neo-prog and symphonic prog on this album... well, on all their albums if my memory serves me right.
The nineteen minutes long Regrets is the stand out piece of music here. A melancholic epic. The rest of the album is just slightly below that level again.
This is indeed a good album and a reminder that Red Sand is one of the better neo-prog bands outside Europe.
