Untold Stories - Wind and Memories (2025)

 

The debut album from this band from Bulgaria.

The band is a quartet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars and keyboards.

A guest added vocals.

The band was formed by Daniel Elieseev whose solo project DEP is pretty known. I have yet to sample his solo albums, though. But I will do that on the back of this album.

The music on this one hour long album is a blend of neo-prog and art-rock. 

It has to be said that neo-prog is the dominant genre in their music. Their music is not as rooted in Genesis and old Marillion as most other neo-prog bands are. Hence the art-rock genre also coming into the picture.

The music is mid-tempo melodic with some good guitar solos, vocals and keyboards.

The sound and music is both slick and a bit workman like. The band sounds well traveled on their instruments and in this kind of music.

This is a good album from a band I feel can and should do a lot better in the future. A bit of an under-whelming album but still a good album.
