Description/Reviews
A rock opera with music ranging from prog rock to bluegrass, acoustic ballads to charleston jazz. The album begins with big, a-typical power-chords which morphs into a hard-edge, almost punk feel, only to be contrasted by bluegrass then a 1940's jazz-esque tune a few songs later. Set somewhere in the near future, Acquiescence takes place in a dystopian metropolis, and explores the challenges of balancing family and career.
