LOOK AT YOU NOW

I didn't even hesitate when giving this album a 5-star rating. This is one of the best albums from the Flower Kings out of a collection of many fine and great albums. The album presents the band at their finest. Excellent musicianship and high production values while offering up a very rejuvenated and refreshing sound make this album really stand out.

I thoroughly enjoyed every listening minute of the 13 tracks on the album that seem to flow quite seamlessly although they are, for the most part, individual songs. And though I love all the songs on the album, there are two songs I'd like to mention here. The first is the anthem "Day for Peace" which is too beautiful for words (you'll just have to listen for yourself) and the second song is, of course, the title track "Look at Your Now" which is a symphonic prog masterpiece in the vein of 1970's YES.

There are so many wonderful prog bands making really great music in the 21st Century. The Flower Kings are certainly one of them and I am so happy they continue to do so with great effect and honor to the genre.
