CRIME OF THE CENTURY

A good pop album, but to be fair, it doesn't deserve all the praise it gets on a progressive rock site. The songs are, as you would expect from a crossover prog record, a mix between pop rock and progressive symphonic rock. Imagine a combination between The Beatles and Yes/Genesis.

For a pop record, this is amazing. The arrangements are very professional, the vocals are great, and there's a great sense of musicality and musicianship. However I just can't give this a higher rating because this is a site focused on progressive music. If you enjoy pop rock then you will definitely enjoy this album, it's just that I can't recommend it to any progressive rock fan.

That's why it's two stars. For fans only.
