In 1993 Pendragon performs back in France and for the first time
in Portugal (Lisboa), and in November they released "The Window Of
Life". The second album from what I calls the "new" Pendragon. I
think that Pendragon took a big step forward with their previous
album "The World". The music changed to the better just like their
artwork, and their albums became a perfect unit.
I have to admit that initially I wasn't a big Pendragon fan, but I
listened a lot to them and I found that they became better and
better between every listening. Now I'm a big "fan" and I can
listen to their entire back catalogue and enjoy them, although I
think that they became really interesting with "The World" in
1991.
This album is not as good as "The World" but almost, as "The
World" had slightly better songs. Here they're continuing on their
high quality neo-prog in the same vein as Marillion, Genesis and
Pink Floyd with nice keyboards and guitar.
The best tracks are "The Walls of Babylon", "The Last Man on
Earth" and "Am I Really Losing You". This is not their best album,
but a must have for every Pendragon fan.
