5 stars The sophomore release of this English band is a fascinating listening experience.

Combining influences from bands like Pink Floyd and Hawkwind like they sounded at the start of their careers with some slight touches from krautrock, highly psychedelic and atmospheric moods are created and explored. The tunes mostly combine mellow sections with an almost minimalistic approach with epic sounding atmospheres, more often than not exploring a mellow theme before suddenly adding elements that in an instant evolves the theme from a lush soundscape into a rich epic sounding soundscape. An additional trait to the music here is a dark and haunting atmosphere throughout, an element setting it apart from most releases in the same category.

Fans of atmospheric, mostly instrumental psychedelic rock as it was made in the early 70's should clearly check this one out. Highly recommended.

Windhawk | 5/5 |
