The debut album from this band from Sweden.
The band was a quartet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, keyboards and vocals.
One guest added flute to this album.
This is another new band to me. Another band I discovered through some positive reviews on ProgArchives. Those made me purchase both their albums, including their brand new album. A review of that album will follow next week.
Appleberry Tree is clocking in at fifty minutes.
The band name is alluding to a well known live album from Rush. I therefore thought the music would be a Rush worship. I was wrong... largely wrong.
The music is a blend of neo-prog and heavy prog. Yes, there are some Rush influences here. The music is influenced by a wide variety of bands.
The guitars are good and this is a guitar-driven album. There are also some organs and flutes here. The vocals are very good.
The music is pretty muscular and rocking throughout. There are some americana influences throughout. The music is also good without really impressing me. The sound is good.
This is a good album and a more than acceptable debut album. Check it out.
