The debut album from this band from Italy.
The band was a quintet with a lineup of bass, guitars, lap steel, keyboards and vocals.
Two guests added drums and bass.
The band is one of the latest additions to the ProgArchives archive of neo-prog bands.
This fifty minutes long album starts out as a Magenta copycat album before the music changes course and goes more into a more melodic neo-prog direction.
Yes, the music has female vocals. And they are good. There are also some good male vocals here.
There is also a lot of symphonic prog like epic instrumental music here too. Some of the music has some RPI influences too.
Most of all, this is a neo-prog album in the Dutch neo-prog tradition.
There are some good guitar solos here and the music is really good. Very good at places.
This band is a welcome addition to the prog rock and in particular the neo-prog scene. This is a debut album which should put the band on the map. This is a borderline very good album but I am bumping it up due to the very good vocals and guitar solos.
3.5 points
