3 stars I must confess I'm no fan of van Der Plas but after listening to the first 3 tracks of Abydos I was convinced of being in front of a true masterpiece, a veritable revelation ("You Broke the Sun and "Silence" are just great!). So you can imagine how disappointed I was after listening to the rest of the album. All the other songs (included the long and insipid title track) are quite below the average, not comparable with the level of the first three and overall quite forgettable. For that reason I've mixed feelings about this work: it's not that bad but it certainly is no masterpiece and in my opinion it doesn't even reach the level of excellence. My final rating: 3 stars and not one more.
