The fifth album from this band from Great Britain.
The band is a quartet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, keyboards, saxophones, flute and vocals.
This album has flown under my radar since it was released one year ago. This despite of me loving the previous album, the 2021 album To Touch The Sky. I gave that a great rating.
The Emerald Dawn from Cornwall is also one of the better British progressive rock bands and has been among the top five British bands since their debut album.
Their take on progressive rock is a mix of neo-prog and symphonic prog. The vocals is somber and I get a lot of Ashes You Leave, a Croatian band, vibes from this album as I did on the previous album.
There are three opuses here. The opening track is clocking in at twenty-four minutes and the second at fifteen minutes. A shorter track is closing this album.
The music is very somber at times and the band has clearly carved themselves out a niche here. The music is also complex and pretty technical with some saxophones and keyboards really adding some very good details to the music.
The vocals is really good and there is a lot of things going on in their music. Some pretty unique music, it is.
The result is a very good album, indeed. It is indeed an album prog fans should check out.
3.5 points
