Advantages: Just a brilliant album, cheap to download from Amazon

Disadvantages: Expensive to find and buy the CD.

As a long time fan of Progressive Rock, I came across this band getting high ratings on ProgArchives.com. Hailing from Norway and taking their name, I believe, from a track by Marillion on their Afraid Of Sunlight album, they do share a resemblance to the H era Marillion, but surpass them easily at the moment.

I listened to what I could find, and bought the album by download from Amazon for under £5 (only problem is that it now has spaces between the tracks, where it should flow as one piece).

As much as I like Marillion, I would love to send this to them and tell them to sit down and listen to it , as this is how is should be done! In my opinion, it is near perfect. Full of quality musicianship, great vocals (similar to Marillion's H, though I do know that some do take a dislike to them - a bit of a marmite factor) and tunes that ebb and flow effortlesly throughout the whole 50+ minutes. When looking at the track listing, my wife was amazed that tracks could be 17+ minutes, but this flies by, as does the whole album.

I can't put a standout track, as it all is simply great listening and was not out of the CD for a couple of weeks, until the new Porcupine Tree CD arrived this week.

You might have got the idea that I like this album, you bet!

Highly recommended (as is their follow-up - Tick Tock). They are probably my two top albums purchased this year so far.

Summary: Just buy it! Hopefully you would love it, too.
