Description/Reviews: 
The ongoing battle of inner-demons from the perspective of an agoraphobic. Chalcedony (Eveshka Ghost) is the androgynous artist to tell the tale. Another five years in the making, the album got so big that it was divided into twins, Chapter III and soon-to-be Chapter IV.
Classical Pianist and keen Drummer/Vocalist Chalcedony tells the story from a unique and poetic perspective. An ever-going quest to the promised land of Brighton, on the English coast, facing his fears of travelling and anxiety, and the amazing stories along the way.
It is a mixture of Symphonic Rock, Celtic and Metal genre.

Description/Reviews: 
...Chalcedony adds a note or at least a sound in every nanosecond of the album, so when I later found that the album concept was based in agoraphobia, it was obvious that the young musician was successful in transmitting the message even without words, something very few artists can achieve.
Chapter II is opened with the impressive Truth be Told, a powerful song that has everything a Prog listener asks for, lush keyboards, great drumming, radical changes and excellent vocals. It's hard to describe and compare with any other band because it's ever changing, but to be honest, reminds me a bit of the dark mysterious sound of Genesis with the complexity of King Crimson plus a good dose of drama, brilliant opener.
