The debut album from this band from Great Britain.
The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars, piano, organ, keyboards and vocals.
Two guests added extra vocals on a couple of tracks.
This is a new name to most of us. The band consist of members from Ellesmere, The Swan Chorus, Tim Bowness Band and a Genesis tribute/cover band. The members are well grown ups and experienced. They decided to form Random Option and to release this album. A good choice, in my view.
This one hour long album, fronted by this superb, elegant album art-work takes us on a journey somewhere between symphonic prog and neo-prog. Add in some art-rock too and you get the drift.
The vocals is very good and the rest of the band does a good job on this mid-tempo, melodic and elegant album. There is no great tracks here but this album still deliver the goods. This mostly due to some really good complex pieces too which proves that the band knows their trade and how to deliver the goods.
This is indeed a good album and one to check out.
