BETWEEN FLESH AND DIVINE

It's a pity that this record hasn't gained the status of monumental albums released by prog monsters like Genesis, King Crimson, Camel, Jethro Tull, you name it. There are no solos neither on the guitar nor keyboards. The singer delivers the lyrics in an almost speak-like manner and he could hardly claim a place among the best singers. But the thing is that the vocals fit SO well with the atmosphere of the music which according to my listens is quite close to Camel (probably due to the flute lines that recall Andy Latimer). Clearly the band aimed for songwriting, melodies and atmosphere. Some tracks are pure gems in the progressive rock music, like Nightwind and Northen Lights, whereas Boundless and Dedicace fall a bit behind, but only just. Every time I spin this vinyl I am truly overwhelmed by its atmosphere. Fans of Camel-and not only- should check this out.
