The Review

Well the Paul Whitehead cover art gives you a clue as to the band's inspiration: Genesis. Early Foxtrot/Selling England era Genesis to be precise. If that is what you want - you are in for a treat with this album. All instrumental, this is a symphonic prog lover's dream. Minus the vocals - this really sounds like a long lost Genesis album in between Foxtrot and Selling England. ***

The album starts with a small piano introduction, and then really kicks off with "Bicycle ride from earth to saturn", a fantastic track that proceeds through many different moods. Hackett-inspired guitar (including an electric sounds that really duplicates Foxtrot-type tone) and extremely Tony Banks-inspired keys take you on a great musical journey. It only gets better after this - although there are 2 other short interludes on the album, the remaining tracks all follow the same rough format of early Genesis inspired prog. Not really any other influences here - but I for one don't mind! All the usual prog keys - mellotron, very nice moog taken straight from Selling England, and some really tasty piano sections. Really the only problem is that vocals really would have added something and it feels a bit short due to the 3 interludes, which, when subtracted from the total time, leave an album length of about 41 minutes. I was really impressed with this album - but it seems that we may not hear more from the band as this is already 5 years old at this point. If you can find it - snatch it up!

Rating: 4 stars
