REQUIEM FOR A DREAM

All Around the World ? A promising start of the album. Inspired and sweeping 8/10

Sacrifice ? Straight forward track that's not too adventurous. Regressive rock. 6/10

Look to the East ? Is another standard track with -imho- a corny chorus. Nothing new comes to my ear. It is all well played, but I'm not pleasantly triggered as prog fan. But it is more energetic than the previous track. 7/10

Forgiven ? There's not enough happening to justify the 11+ minutes of this song. I am quite disappointed by this one. It is pretty sometimes, but nothing special. 7/10

The night's dance ? A straightforward ballad. Nothing wrong with it. Not very proggy either. The use of strings doesn't equal prog in my book. 6.5/10

Say Goodbye Tomorrow ? I don't know if this is because we are more than 45 minutes in, but I'm getting more and more annoyed by the unimaginative compositions. 6/10

Don't forget my name ? It's hard not to forget this forgettable chorus 6/10

Requiem for a dream - Parts of it are powerful, energetic and interesting. It is truly proggy! Why is the rest of the album so bland? 8.5/10

All in all, I rate this one 2 stars. For fans of this genre that hardly fits the prog bill IMHO.
