ARC OF LIFE

I really wanted to like it more. Since I knew about this band, and considering the excellent line up I have to admit that my expectations were high. So, after five listens I can't help to be a bit dissapointed since more than half of the material is plain and bland AOR. The vocals range from good to awful (especially some processed vocals from Jon Davison). However, there are a couple of progressive tracks, and are good enough to maintain the hope in this band.

1. Life Has A Way (5.5/10) 2. Talking With Siri (6/10) 3. You Make It Real (3.5/10) 4. Until Further Notice (7/10) 5. The Magic Of It All (4/10) 6. Just In Sight (8/10) 7. I Want To Know You Better (3.5/10) 8. Locked Down (6.5/10) 9. There For We Are (8/10) 10. The End Game (4/10)

Recommended to all fans of Yes (Big generator, Open your eyes) and Billy Sherwood.
