This band from Sweden, formed in 1994, has not released an album since 2007's The Sum of No Evil. This is another treat to the ears from this Progressive Rock band.
If you are a fan of YES or bands of similar sounds, more importantly than that is the scope of the album: on the first CD, the shortest song is six minutes; the first song clocks in at 25:26. The song is 'Numbers," & it's below.*(updated)
The playing of the instruments is so well orchestrated that this well-oiled machine of a group plays with such style and rhythmic precision that it is awe-inspiring.
As well as the vocals, which are so clear.
Pandemonium has a distorted voice singing with the band, but the elements of this song have so much depth and sound like they have been playing these songs for years.
Being a huge RUSH fan for so many years ever since I heard "All The World's A Stage" many years ago, I have always had a fondness for this style and scope of music. This has a much different sound than that of RUSH; however, the playing is just as fantastic as something from the trio.
This is easily one of my favorite albums of the year for sure!
