The third album from this band from Great Britain.
The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars, bodhran, balalaika, oud, piano, organ, keyboards and vocals.
This is the follow up album to the rather disappointing, poor 1996 album The Wedge. You can read my review of that album from earlier this month.
The band returned again two years later with this album, a seventy minutes long album.
The sound is far more muscular and so is the music. The music here is a blend of neo-prog and heavy prog.
The music is also pretty catchy throughout. Catchy but also complex and epic at the same time.
The vocals is very good and the rest of the band does a good job.
The title track is very good while the ten other songs are good. The overall quality is indeed good and this is a very welcome return to form for this band.
