This is progressive at it's maximum for sure. Very complex instrumental
passages sometimes. Another thing with this band and album is
that there are female vocals delivered by Laura van Driel. I wouldn't say
that it's my favorite female voice. She reminds me of another one I know,
and is not bad at all. A bit shaky sometimes maybe, but in general really
interesting. The best track on the album is without doubt the 19 minutes
epic track at the end, "Skyang Khang-Ri". In this one the guitarist Martijn
Balsters does some vocals too, which I think are very good.
A very tight band and with some great
melodies here and there. I'm sure that their music is quite hard for the
ear to get a grip on though, but many prog lovers will fall for their stuff
immediately. Check it out.
