3 stars Wow! This is the most Yes-sounding album of all Downes Bride Association, surely the involvement of Mr Downes in the recording of the new album has something to do with it!. Now, Halcyon dreams is very uplifting, with more space for instrumental breaks than in their previous efforts and very progressive as well. The songs are well constructed and are very catchy, I bet you will be returning to it for sure.

My favourite tracks are King of the sunset and Love will find a way, the most proggy ones (actually Remembrance is a bit of a let down since half of the song is narrated and the chorus overly repeated). Recommended to al fans of DBA, Yes and Asia. 3.5 stars!
