DEPOIS DO FIM

As a write this review Depois Do Fim is #7 in the Top 100 Albums list. Before I listened to it, it seemed sort-of out of place next to Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, Yes, Genesis, and PFM. But once I bought it and listened to it a few times, I had no doubt in my mind that this was a masterpiece of prog.

Depois Do Fim is one of those albums where every song is absolutely incredible - and different. Mario Neto's guitar is a constant, dominate force for the entire album. While Neto and the rhythm section play away, flute, keyboards, and Jane Duboc's beautiful voice take turns in the spotlight.

Each song is intricately well-done, with catchy melodies and amazing progression. Furthermore, there aren't any real direct influences present on this album, only similarities. Additionally, Bacamarte has a very distinctive South American sound, which is used very well in many of the songs.

This is one of my favorite albums of all time. Very, very, very highly recommended.
