TRIUMIVIRAT

""POMPEII""

Just a point, there's no epic named Pompeii by Triumvirat, epic is a name for long songs (usually more than 15 minutes), as a fact there's not even a song named Pompeii by Triumvirat.

Pompeii is a conceptual album that has a 4 stars rating average in this site (Too high IMO) but not a bad album at all.

I don't think that talking about what is not liked upsets anybody. It's just expressing one's opinion.

There's good and bad everywhere, also in prog. We all have our own tastes!

Anyway, "Ghostship" is found in SHADOW GALLERY's "Carved in Stone" album. I think it's their first release but I'm not sure.

The song is divided into a number of tracks, maybe 7 or 8. The first 2 or 3 are good, but then it's minutes and minutes of effects, noises, silence (!!!) .... just terrible.

Ciao,

Please check the info 1st, then write, ok?

When you are here longer you'll see that this type of thread invariably ends with bad feeling somewhere!

Actually, 'Carved In Stone' is their second release,after the self-titled. I like 'Ghostship', sure it can be difficult to get into but there's so much about it that's awesome like the brilliant piano solo.Breathtaking!

Garden of Dreams by TFK.

Billed as a 60 minute rollicking prog epic, it is in fact about 20 short songs strung, spliced and segued together in a cackhanded fashion with a couple of cursory recurring themes to attempt to justify its "epic" status. 10/10 for initial ambition, 2/10 for effort, chaps.

In these kinds of threads you always inevitably upset someone.
