The fifth album from this band from Italy.
The band was a quartet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, keyboards, flute and vocals.
When I reviewed their new album earlier this year in # 3 of this blog, I discovered to my big surprise that I had forgotten to review this album. So I got this album and put it on the long list of albums to review this summer.
The music on this seventy-five minutes long album is RPI.
Most of the music is instrumental. There is a lot of Camel and ELP in their music. Ditto for the likes of PFM too. The church organs and flutes takes this in both a goth and a folk rock direction. Both those two genres has left it's mark on this album.
The vocals parts is more in the vein of Banco like RPI, although the vocals are in English and not particular good.
The production is far too thin and the result is a pretty bad guitar sound. The production and the English vocals is the main letdown here. The music is good to very good.
This is an album well worth checking out as with the rest of this band's albums.
