Comedy Of Errors - Time Machine (2022)

The fifth album from this band from Scotland, UK. 

The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, keyboards and vocals.

This band from Glasgow has been around since the mid-1980s. Several cassette singles and albums was released. The band then split up in the early 1990s, the band members became older, wiser..... and the band started up again. The first album, their first real album, was Disobey in 2011 and that got them a good name and reputation. So much that they are now one of the bigger neo and melodic prog bands in UK and Europe.

The band gives us a mix of good old style neo-prog and some more epic symphonic prog.

The sound is very much the 1990s neo-prog sound. I am more a fan of more meaty, muscular sound than their sound. 

The music is complex and the addition of a live version of the title track on Disobey at the end of the album is good.

There are some weird, eclectic and quirky complex stuff on this album too. The French vocals on the title track comes as a huge surprise and the title track is a very good song.

The result is a good album from a band who has established themselves as one of the better bands in the scene.
