Nova - Atlantis (1976)

 

The one and only album from this band from Finland.

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

This band consisted of five veterans from another band from Finland. They recorded this album and then found out that progressive rock was not any longer popular in Finland. No gigs, no sold albums meant the band split up shortly afterwards.

That is not a reflection of the quality of this album, though.

The music here is a mix of Procol Harum, Yes, Wigwam, Eloy and some Pink Floyd. The music is mid-tempo with some very good keyboards. The vocals are in Finnish and ads some exotic flavours.

The sound is pretty good too.

This is quite a charming album and one Procol Harum fans will lap up and devour with pleasure.
