REVOLUTIONS

Discovered Magenta whilst browsing Youtube. Listened to the clip of them performing Wonderous Stories by Yes. Was well impressed with that so thought I'd dip into some of their back catalogue. Read some of the reviews of Revolutions and thought that would be a good place to start. I've listened to it a couple of times now and I have to say I'm a little disappointed. The musicianship can't be faulted for sure, but oh dear the lyrics. Twee at best. All this stuff about computers and lap tops etc - I mean please. Some nice tunes I guess, but nothing new whatsoever. A misnomer to call this prog rock as there's nothing progressive about it at all. It would be better named Regressive Rock.
