The debut album from this band from Great Britain.
The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars, keyboards, flute and vocals.
This band comes from the south coast of England.... Southampton to be more precise. The band's probable average age is around fifty years.
This album is sixty-three minutes long and the music is a blend of neo-prog with some early symphonic prog and folk rock. Genesis, Marillion, Jethro Tull and Ange springs to mind when it comes to references.
The vocals, English vocals, still reminds me a lot about Ange's and Magnesis vocals. Yes, two very different languages but the style of vocals is pretty similar. And that is a compliment to Ashley Stone, the vocalist in this band. His vocals are indeed very good.
The music is both epic and a bit complex. There are some nice keyboards generated organ and church organs pieces here too.
The songs are long and twisting.
The music is rather good with the keyboards being the stars here. This is very much a promising debut album and I hope we will hear a lot more from this band in the future.
