KALEIDOSCOPE

I've been a big fan of Transatlantic in the past. The first two albums still stand as really good prog. Kaleidoscope however is them just treading water and is a bit of a disappointment to me personally. I know they can play well, and the music is recorded as good as always, but its just average, generic prog with not much to recommend it. Its fine if you want some background prog to play while your 'doing the ironing', but does'nt hold my attention as well as their other albums.

They need to up their game if they want to stay at the top of the prog tree. Lets hope the next installment is an improvement. I very much hope so.
