Ancient Vision - Focus Or Blinders (1993)

The second album from this band from USA.

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

Three guests provided synths, saxophones and female vocals.

Their debut album was a nice mix of symphonic prog and neo-prog. Hence, I was looking forward to this album.

The music is again a mix of symphonic prog and neo-prog. More neo-prog than symphonic prog, it has to be said.

This album is very long... well over an hour long.

The sound is the typical 1990s with a lot of 1980s neo-prog sound too. The music also sounds like 1980s neo-prog. The vocals are really deeply unimpressive.

There are a couple of good songs here. The vast majority of the songs are barely decent.

This is a disappointing release and one best forgotten.
