The sixth album from this band from Great Britain.
The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, keyboards and vocals.
This is their so far latest album. The band album debuted back in 2006 and I have reviewed all their albums. I have so far not been impressed.
The music on this forty minutes long album is a blend of art-rock and neo-prog. A good reference is Marillion. That is both early and latter days Marillion.
On this album, the band has reverted a bit back to the neo-prog soundscape from the early 1990s. There is therefore far more neo-prog here than art-rock.
This album is therefore a kind of a retro neo-prog album. It is also based on songs. Some of them are pretty short and catchy, make that poppy, too. The final track is an eleven minutes long track.
The qualiy has actually improved on this album and this is their so far best album. I am not yet converted but I still hope we will get some more albums from them.
This is indeed a good album and well worth checking out.
