4 stars US based band DREAMING MADMEN was officially formed back by the Aboujaoude brothers fairly recently. Presumably as a side project needed for them to use their creative impulses to write and perform their own material, as that aspect of a musician's life is more limited in their main band Brick Floyd. "Ashes of a Diary" is their debut album, and was released in the early fall of 2019.

Dreaming Madmen takes a natural step outwards from their main band Brick Floyd to create a debut album made very much in the mould of Gilmour-era Pink Floyd. The moods, atmospheres, key arrangements and song structures all reference back to later day Pink Floyd. That being said, the band manages to expand their palette a bit beyond this as well, and while the music may not be all that original it is well made and executed. As such, this is a production that merits a check by those who love and treasure the sound of Gilmour era Pink Floyd as well as the bands exploring similar territories.
