Some rubbish ones Engaging ambience with more dynamic elements, and great vocals. A little derivative of Ayreon's back catalogue. For fans of progressive jams. Not a lot for the rest of us.

Awesome musician and a jolly feel Similar sound throughout
The Shondes - The Red Sea
A few decent tracks No way near as good as the critics made out, vocals are irritating
Ala Zingara - In a Gypsy Style
A lot of variety, some tracks are excellent So much variation that you might not like all tracks

Easily enjoyed brutal death metal (if you find that sort of thing easy to enjoy). Doesn't stand out from the crowd.
