The debut album from this one-man-band from Germany.
Frank Alpeter does the keyboards, drums programming, bass programming and vocals here.
He had help from two guests who delivered guitars and vocals.
Frank Alpeter is a member of a Gary Moore tribute band and now also a solo artist under the Red Lloyd name.
He started Red Lloyd as he wanted to do classic progressive rock in the vein of Genesis and Pink Floyd.
The music on this fifty minutes long Bandcamp and CD album is along those lines. Melodic progressive rock in the same vein as Genesis.
There are also some Pink Floyd influences here but they are not as strong as the Genesis influences. Some Pendragon and RPWL influences are also evident. There are a lot of neo-prog here, in short.
The vocals are decent and the music is fairly good. The music is far from being rich on details and that is a disappointment.
That said, this is a fairly good album and should please anyone into melodic progressive rock.
2.5 points
