3 stars Sheep was an EP that came out before the 2014 official release of the Horizons album, which found Anubis Gate perhaps most diverse and melodic to date. Centered around, of course, the mammoth cover of Pink Floydian classic Sheep, the disk actually begins with an edited version of the Horizons lead-off track, Destined to Remember. Which is perhaps a typical Anubis Gate track, distinctive and varied. As for Sheep, the ungulates get a modernized and heavier treatment while not straying too far from the original, but I feel that in the process it lost some of the latter's stark dynamics. The final item is a cover of a slick but now forgotten 1980s AOR hit, which also gets a heavier but not too radical update, but in this case the added oomph actually increases the track's dynamics so to speak.
