LOVER'S END PT. III: SKELLEFTEÅ SERENADE

The first thing that shocked me about this album was its rating. 79% 5 stars is absolutely ridiculous. While I don't think this is the best prog EP of all time like this site says, it's without a doubt one of the best modern prog epics I have EVER heard. It's beautiful, it's charming, it's positive, it's gentle and sweet. The whole song has a very nostalgic feel that makes you imagine yourself at the end of a great and long adventure, filled with satisfaction. Main influences would be The Flower Kings and Neal Morse, but this is unsurprisingly better than anything those artists have made.

It is truly a landmark of symphonic prog and it's definitely essential to every prog collection. Loved every second of it. Five Stars.
