COMMON GROUND

I met this band with their album "Grand Tour" which seemed to me an interesting exercise in giving a bit of youth to the classic forms of progressive rock. With their album "Common Ground" these forms are maintained, with the difference that now they sound less symphonic, due to the fact that they have opted for a more traditional formation.

Without losing creativity, and with a musical career already quite long, the band is not afraid to remain faithful to its style- a style that feeds on all the classics, and therefore is not for original, but who is original? ¡?- and give us an album with a lot of charisma and harmony between all the instruments. The ideas here are not new at all, but they are so well executed that they never get boring. That a record can keep you tuned for an hour is quite valuable considering that these 'retro' bands sometimes tend to repeat themselves and become tedious.
