The 20th album from this one-man-band from Ukraine.
Antony Kalugin did the keyboards and some vocals here.
He had help from a long list of guests who provided drums, percussion, bass, guitars, accordion, saxophones, male and female vocals.
Antony Kalugin is in my humble opinon a true maestro and one of the best and most prolific artists in the progressive rock genre. He is also one of the far too many victims of Russia's cowardly attack on his country.
Antony Kalugin has so far released three albums under the Karfagen name this year. I reviewed the Message From Afar: Second Nature album earlier this year and was not too impressed. It was a bit wishy-washy musicals like music.
The music on Land Of Chamelons is a bit different again as it is a mix of Pink Floyd, Genesis and musicals.
The female and male vocals is very good. There is hardly any of the Antony Kalugin's trademark neo-classical music here though although the music is melodic and has his fingerprints all over it. The album also has some good details
The music is good on this fifty minutes long single CD version of this album (there is also a double CD version of this album). It is an improvement on the previous albums and one to check out.
