Description/Reviews
"Overall, the album is very melodic, a bit more mellow in places than the last two albums. I deliberately wanted to make a record where the atmosphere was the strong point and was an album of very real guitar sounds and not wildly overrun with weird samples. There are a lot of guitar solos, maybe not the longest, but its quality over quantity I hope. Also we have two very different [for us] keyboard solos and some strong songs."

  1. This album is good but well below Pure or Passion. No melody sticks in my head, which is a pity as Nick Barret is one of the best melody makers of the neo-prog arena. After three or four listens, I can't remember a lot of the songs I've heard. They sound ok but lack the genius behind songs like "This Green and Pleasant Land" or even "Indigo". Even the guitar parts are not surprising me, whereas they were a lot more inspired some years ago... I'm waiting for the next album, as I like most of the previous work of Nick.
