Yeah, "clinical" might be a better term. I think it's down to the production and playing. It feels very precise and exact.....no human element. I agree that the stories in the lyrics are quite good, and do have some emotional resonance. I just think it gets a bit lost in the pristine production and performance (though it's somewhat impressive that they duplicate it live so precisely, particularly Steven's vocals). |

You are correct they are indeed a great live band and I am checking them out agin next month ![]() I don't know what albums you've been listening to, but I will say that their last album Ghost Moon Orchestra was superlative in my humble opinion. Their new one, due out in May has a tough act to follow. I've been tempted by the latest Spocks Beard for some time. Ever since reading Tom's review it has been on my List and the good reviews keep coming. Unfortunately it did not appear upon passing of my 29th birthday ( ![]() |

I may listen to it and take notes - then post a review - Strange that you think that "Raven" is cold - I think that the title track is perhaps one of the most disturbing (emotionally) tracks I have ever heard - It is a contender for being played at my requiem...such is it's emotional impact - It literally moves me to tears - and not many tracks do that to stone-hearted little old me - I can tell you !!! |

May have to get that Beard record. People keep raving about it, even people who weren't crazy with the rest of the post Morse stuff. Raven is an awesome album. I find it just a bit too "cold" to be in my top twenty greats.......maybe top 30 though ![]() |

Lucky you! Would be nice to just run into the boys like that. Don't get me wrong, I still love TFK's. I just took a break after heavy rotation of Desolation Rose. They do still come up on the MP3 player now and again ![]() |

I have been listening to the Latest Spock's Beard - the last four tracks are superb - the first two are ok!
Oh and Raven was thrown in as well - I'd put that CD in my top twenty all time greats - it is just astonishingly good!!! |

Just to be contrary, over the last couple of weeks I've listened to 3 TFK albums (Unfold, Flower Power and DR) with absolutely nothing from GH. Probably listened to Perilous twice this year and that's it

Just popping in to say that I, too, have been listening to Glass Hammer and not the Flower Kings lately. Along with a few other things as well. But I recently bought the two most recent Glass Hammer albums and I am enjoying them quite a bit.
