BACK FROM THE VOID

So many hyperbolic, vitriolic reviews about legitimate music. This is nice varied, well-played, and if not an utter masterpiece, then a superior genre work by skilled musicians who demonstrate imagination and reflexes within several prog-related subtypes. Less of an overabundance of cliche's than perpetrated by the cliche-makers themselves. Too bad the hard work of dedicated musicians ends up the target of self-appointed connoisseurs and guardians of the gates of Prog with a need to make their judgment superior to the creative efforts of others. Most of us try to keep our envy in check and just enjoy the music, and choose what appeals to us, rather than bash the music and the musician. This one is worth a few bucks and a good listen, and is worthy of wider attention.
