I was introduced to this band by a prog buddy of mine, and I immediately ordered it from Synphonic (likely my 50th purchase from them by now!).

What an excellent, excellent album. Wonderful melodies, arrangements, vocals (female, which I'm usually kind of lukewarm about, but in this case she is just outstanding and totally in her element)... very firmly rooted in the original neo-prog style (early Marillion, IQ, Twelfth Night, you get the picture) with guitar often sounding similar to Arena's better moments.

I'm listening to track 3, "Beneath The Boy" as I type this and I am reminded strongly of 1982-1984 Mark Kelly playing during this solo.

What a treat to love a new album so much! I encourage you to try this one out.
