OK, are you familiar with the guys who get wild about an album you must hear!! and go like this is the best unknown piece of music you haven't got the chance to hear etc... then you listen to the music and..nothing! you just don't understand what was all the noise about - I'm sure you experienced a similar situation sometime. Anyway - this is really a lost gem, not quite long and changing songs like classic Prog rock stuff but the production is very reach in sound and the music is quite sophisticated through most of the album. If you listen to the first songs and think this is not your cup of tea, you at least must listen to the last track August Carol , it starts like a rhythmic song which follows the general sound of the album for the first 3+ minuets of the part then it suddenly ends! what you have from here until the end of the album is one of the most magnificent music pieces I ever heard - and I heard a few. It starts with a lush Melotorn tracks that just overlaps one another building a very smooth anticipation until they brake with a very full Melotron move and then! the most full bodied guitar sound I ever heard with a bigger then life vibrato and a really beautiful melody - I'm not an English native speaker so I find it hard to describe but you just have to hear this piece - only problem is that its too short. Bottom line - a really great album with a grand finale!!
