The third album from this band from Canada.
The band is a quintet with a lineup of drums, percussion, guitars, clavinet, organ, wurlitzer organ, mellotron, keyboards, synths and vocals.
The band had help from some guests who added their percussion, steel guitar, synths and backing vocals.
This band and their fellow French-Canadians Barrdo is for the greatest finds of this year.
Their blend of The Beatles, Rush, Harmonium, King Crimson and Led Zeppelin is just about my personal paradise.
On this album, there is not so much Led Zeppelin as on the first two albums. The music has been become far more pastoral and an extra eclectic prog edge has been added.
The songs are not so catchy either. This album is much more a grower than their second album. An album I still think is their best album.
Then again, the band still proves that they are highly talented and skilled even when changing their style a bit. Even the pastoral side of this band is very good.
This album is indeed a grower and grows on the listener a bit slower than their first two albums. But when the listener gets it..... voila.
Check out this very good album and band. This band really deserve a lot of attention.
