The second album from this band from Germany.
The band was a trio with a lineup of bass, guitars, keyboards and vocals.
Two guests provided drums and flute on this album.
I reviewed their 2018 debut album Project One exactly six years ago, in January 2019 for # 2 of this blog. I gave it a decent to good rating.
I have now got their three latest albums and these will all be reviewed before the end of this month.
The band is offering up some pop/rock flavoured neo-prog on this one hour and five minutes long album.
The vocals is good and the music is not too complicated. The music is ticking of nicely....
... but the band has pushed the boat out on a couple of songs which starts out as two well known Genesis songs before the band changes the songs and is adding on their own stuff onto these tone-for-tone Genesis songs. Hence they are not cover tracks. These are original compositions from Riven Earth. Nevertheless, these two songs smells a bit fishy to me. Just as a minor complaint.......
The songs on this album is a mix of decent and good songs. The songs are more workman like than really creative progressive.
Check out this album if melodic neo-prog sounds tempting.
2.5 points
