Corvus Stone - Corvus Stone Unscrewed (2015)

 

The third album from this multi-national band.

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

A handful of guests added drums, guitars, keyboards and vocals.

This is the latest album from this band and very probably their final album. 

This fifty minutes long album has four new songs and nine remixes of old songs. This is strictly not a proper new studio album. 

Stef Fleming and the late Colin Tench were the main people in this project. Stef Fleming, Blake Carpenter and Sean Filkins are some of the vocalists here. 

The music is a blend of heavy prog, folk rock and symphonic prog. The organ sound is great here and the band has got that one right.

The vocals are good. Most of the music is instrumental though and remixes has taken the music more into a symphonic prog direction than the original songs.  

The result is a good album and that is a surprise as the remixes and the new songs are superior to their first two albums. Their journey ended with Colin Tench's tragic passing. This album is another tribute to him and his musical visions.
