Description/Reviews: 

Damn, look at that title. I’ll bet you can’t guess what kind of music this is. For you uninitiated, I’d like to extend a warm welcome to the world of Progressive Folk Rock, a place where lutes, puffy pants and Medieval European music collide with vintage analog synthesizers and drum kits. You’re going to hear lots of acoustic stringed instruments and a few nice picked acoustic guitar solos (when do you hear those in prog music?). You’re also going to experience unique, imaginative percussion and punchy basslines, and an impressive collection of vintage and/or vintage-sounding leads and pads that add a lush texture to the album and augment the folk instruments nicely. I particularly enjoyed the song structure, which seems to ebb and flow constantly and will keep listeners on their tones. Lots of abrupt changes and good use of dynamics – the listener will really get the feeling that they’re listening to a performance, not just a collection of songs. No vocals on this one; this is 100% proggy folky nonsense, and it’s pretty wonderful.(Markus Cueva at progulator.com )
