FRIEND OF ALL CREATURES

Originally began as on offshoot of Spock's Beard (featuring current and former members Ted Leonard, Jimmy Keegan, Dave Meros, John Boegehold) in 2019, this band has forged their own way, creating their own sound and style, to become one of the premier modern melodic progressive rock bands. This is their 5th album (over just 6 years), and continues their reign of producing high quality 'music that's progressive and intricate while keeping things immediate and melodic' (in the band's own words). Another batch of wonderful songs that are a joy throughout, beautiful and well-played, with great vocals and musicianship, and the full range of emotions, dynamics, and instrumentation. Although not quite my favorite of theirs (that would be 2022's Only Passing Through), this is a great album nonetheless, and maintains the high bar established by each of the previous albums. Masterful melodic prog. Best Tracks: Down the Darkest Road, Words of Love Evermore, Days We'll Remember, Another Holy Grail. Rating: 4.0
