4 stars Well, it's not difficult to understand that after this work, where Banco was fully involved in the difficult task to split themelselves from their prog style regarding the first three albums, They immediately after dedicated themselves to make a "renewal" of the old sound, but without forgetting their prog roots...and naturally the music, despite being less inspiring in comparison to their best progressive works (think of their concept album "Darwin" for example...), was fully expressed anyway in this melodic "Come in...", above all as it was focused on vocals and their classic influence as well!!

In fact no one can deny there was a new change, especially concerning the "artistic" direction (talking about their compositions as well), which will bring a pop mood in the eighties; nevertheless They were still able- after the present album- to compose some very interesting instrumental works, before their definitive commercial or mainstream choice...so "Come in..." is an important step of the band's career, even though you won't find any ever-green or classic hits here, those are the "immortal" songs I mean, that still today They keep on playing live on stage!!...Nevermind, cause something important has been left to their prog fans, who will avoid the commercial hits of the eighties (a-la "Moby Dick", I mean...) but will keep on collecting their intelligent works, like the present one!!

After all it's worth checking out, at least!
