It is often difficult to rate an EP. Too short probably to make one's own judgement but long enough to get an idea?

This "Echolyn" work offers two facets: a soft and folkish affair while you listen to the opening "Bright Sides". And a more conventional "Echolyn" textured music with "Ballet For A Marsh" which offers a more complex structure and to be honest a more solid prog approach.

Somewhat in between, the pleasant "Brunch In The Sun" which is quite a nice moment of music. Light, symphonic and vaguely jazzy?

As most EP's, this one is absolutely not essential. Not at all representative of what the band is able to produce. Just an hors d'oeuvre awaiting the next album I guess ("As The World" ? that will only see the light two years later).

As such, two stars are a maximum rating. The production of "Blue & Sand" sounds pretty awkward and loose. You'd better pass your way?
