The second album from this multi-national project.
The project was a quartet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars and keyboards.
A dozen guests added percussion and vocals to this album.
This band has in total released three studio albums. I reviewed the debut album back in October 2012 in # 1 of this blog and you can read the review here. I will review the third album sometime later this week.
Corvus Stone II is clocking in at eighty minutes.
The music is a blend of heavy prog and neo-prog. Stef Fleming and the late Colin Tench were the main people in this project. Stef Fleming is still around and writing new music, btw. Stef Fleming, Blake Carpenter and Sean Filkins are some of the vocalists here.
The music is mid-tempo and their take on melodic progressive rock has a lot of Americana influences.
This is a long album and not everything is good here. There are also some very good pieces here. The quality is on average good and this album offers a lot of value for money. Check it out.
