Uncle Weevil - Uncle Weevil (2025)

 

The debut album from this band from Sweden.

The band was a quartet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, keyboards and vocals.

This band is a new band from Sweden, formed of members with a probable average age of 50 years or so, according to the band photo I got.

This is not a boyband, in other words.

The music on this fifty-four minutes long album is melodic neo-prog. 

There are some pretty big Kaipa and Agents Of Mercy influences in their music. 

The music is pretty symphonic at places although the songs are pretty short, on average five minutes long. The organ sound is good and ditto for the vocals.

My main gripe is the quality of the songs which is not on a good standard. That said, this is an acceptable debut album and neo-prog and fans of Scandinavian neo-prog and symphonic prog should and must check out this album.
