The second album from this band from Great Britain.
The band was a trio with a lineup of bass, drum machine, guitars, synths, organ, piano and vocals
Three guests added guitar solos, vocals and operatic vocals.
Cyan is one of the first and legendary bands in the neo-prog scene. They were the forerunner of Magenta. Indeed, both Christiana Booth and Robert Reed is members of Cyan on this album. They are 2/3 of Cyan here.
The music is epic, melodic neo-prog. The music is also classic neo-prog with a lof of Genesis influences.
The sound is a bit thin and the typical 1980s sound. The synths has a plastic feel and taste.
The songs are good though and leaves no doubts that this band is one of the best classic neo-prog bands.
Cyan is now Magenta. But they have nothing to be ashamed of here.
