The second album from this band from Hungary.
The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars, keyboards and flute.
A handful of guests added guitars, keyboards, saxophone and narration. A choir also added their voices too.
This is the Solaris bass player Tamas Pocs side project and the band has released three albums. All of them reviewed this month in this blog.
I was not particular impressed by their run-of-the-mill instrumental progressive rock album. Hence, I had no expectations to this album.
We get more of the same here. ELP, Camel and some Dream Theater. But the band has added something extra too...
There are some really good guitars here and guitar solos. There are also some Hungarian folk rock too here. The choir bit is a bit cheesy but it still adds some personality and colours to the album. The same does the flutes.
Not everything here is good. Nevertheless, this is an improvement on their debut album and an album well worth checking out.
