A very kind and polite review. But I wouldn't have it any other way from the two leading masterminds of two leading Prog bands in the 21st century. This album is definitely a mood album. Most definitely nothing I would play on a regular basis but only for those rare occasions. I believe they have accomplished such a position of moodiness and sort of nostalgic awe for the good ol' golden days of the seventies. I would've probably scored it maybe 5 points higher just because it does not reach a wide audience. Although I don't think that was the purpose of this album by any means in the first place.

I've noticed when an artist wants to change direction and does it under their existing band name, people often suggest they should have started a new band name instead. And yet, when artists do start a new project, people often wish it sounded more like their other band.

Anyway, that's just an observation. I haven't heard this yet so I can't really comment any further.

This band reminds me of Neige and Roman Saenko. Such a waste of great talent...

Yes, that's quite curious. It's impossible to please the vox populi.

People don't like it when musicians do new things :-P

That's because humans are generally miserable cunts who just like to complain.

Was expecting a lot more from these guys. I wasn't exactly wanting a PT/Opeth hybrid, but surely the creative genius between those two could've inspired something a little less tired-sounding than this, right?
