My expectations for this album were not high. Sadly, it did not manage to meet even those.

This is album suffers from the same shortcomings that plague much of modern prog.

One thing is the production. The cleanliness of the whole things makes this sound like Coldplay with odd meters (though Coldplay can occasionally write more evocative songs). The composer seems to get lost in his own work. Leaning too heavily into the "prog" elements to remember that the songs also have to be good if you want to justify those kinds of excursions. Ryan Stevenson manages to drag us through these fortytwo minutes without offering a single memorable melody. The drummer just seems clueless, but this might be due to poor direction from Stevenson.

I do not understand the people who claim there is anything jazzy about this.
