Protos - One Day A New Horizon (1982)

The debut album from this band from Great Britain.

The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars, cello, ukulele and keyboards.

This band has released three albums and they are all up for reviews in this blog before the end of the year.

The band has just released their third album and that is a good excuse to review their first two albums before I review this year's album.

The music here is a mix of symphonic prog and neo-prog. All of it is instrumental. Their three albums is all instrumental, as far as I gather.

The music is melodic and symphonic. It comes across as a blend of Camel, Mike Oldfield and Steve Hackett. 

The sound is pretty good throughout.

The music is decent enough without really impressing me. This album is like a run-of-the-mill instrumental symphonic prog album and it is bereft of any originality or personality.

This is therefore a decent album but nothing more than that.
