Forever Twelve - Neighborhood of Spirits (2023)

The fifth album from this band from USA.

The band is a quartet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, keyboards and vocals.

This is a band I have only a bit vague knowledge of. They debuted back in 2002 and I have reviewed only one of their albums.

When I get offers to review symphonic prog albums, I never decline these offers. This despite of not being a fan of their previous album.

Their music on this album is a mix of old US symphonic prog and some neo-prog from across the pond, Great Britain. There are also some art-rock in their album.

The album is fifty-five minutes long. The vocals is really good and the music is elegant and mid-tempo. There is also a lot of tasteful organ here and the sound is leaning towards the 1970s US prog rock sound.

The music here is really good and it makes me want to get more from this band. 

Fans of melodic but still intelligent prog will really like this album.
