ALONE

I also liked the bands featuring the excellent Mirek on the guitar, although I believe that each respective debut album was far much better than its follow-ups (I'm talking about Collage and Satellite).

This album doesn't hold the same appealing and attractive music IMO. It is more neo-pop than neo-prog as far as I'm concerned (I Don't Believe), and the great guitar player doesn't appear too much in his leading role during this album.

The title track features some nice vocal melody as well as the first inspired (and short) guitar solo. It is a fine song, no more. The singer has a pleasant voice, the band is accurate but has little to offer here.

A collection of mellow songs with here and there some aerial keyboards (Wake Up), some short guitar solo and a fine gentle vocal parts. Even if the neo-prog genre is not the more complex of the spectrum, this album has really very few interesting songs featured. I feel a bit sad but I don't like this album very much. Only some fractions of it but certainly not the mellowish and repetitive War not the ambient Mother Dream.

This album is a serious disappointment. It is not really bad, but I can't recommend it either. Two stars.
