The second album from this band from Australia.
The band was a trio with a lineup of drums, percussion, didgeridoo, bass, guitars, keyboards, electronics, flute and harmonica.
A guest added vocals on two tracks.
This is their second album that year and the follow up to their self-titled debut album. An album that did not impress me much, as I noted in my review of it earlier this month.
The follow up album is a three quarters of an hour long album. We get a blend of cinematic rock, vaudeville rock and symphonic prog.
The album includes two cover tracks and two vocals tracks. Female vocals, it is and they are pretty good. The PFM cover track is remarkable dull and a total miss. Their take on Iron Maiden's Halloweed By Thy Name, which is my alltime favourite Iron Maiden piece of music, is quite quirky and has been made into a trivial rock song. I very much prefer the original version.
The rest of the album is plodding along without really being impressive or any good. This is another decent enough album from this band down under.
