Advantages: Beautiful piece of music.

Disadvantages: Not everyone will give it a chance

The Armed Man: A Mass For Peace by Welsh composer Karl Jenkins was released eerily on September 10 2001, is a wonderfully arty album full of beautifully pieced music which is perfect for chilling out to whilst doing some work and just trying to relax on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
I came across the album by accident, I was shopping Missing records in the pre-owned section and I decided that I wanted to hear something different from my usual Bon Jovi, U2 and Alterbridge stuff that I normally listen to. Now and again I'll go through phases where I just want something completely different. So when I seen this eye-catching cover at £3.99 I gave it a try and I'm glad I did.
It's like a musical play, hard to describe but I recommend you seek it out if you're in anyway interested in music written with a powerful message, this one being of the horrific events that many brave soldiers face when placed in the midst of a war.
This has already been described as a modern day classic, you can pick it up cheap on eBay now and I would recommend doing so, this type of music can truly connect with people of all ages and I urge anyone who isn't familiar with it to give it a try.

Summary: I'd recommend this, it's a modern day masterpiece.
