It is a sheer delight to hear a brand new Eloy album in 2023 with the mastermind Frank Bornemann on  vocals and guitars. His familiar German accent greets me like a lost friend and the beauty of  Hannes Folberth  and Michael Gerlach's keyboards are hypnotic. Klaus-Peter Matziol on bass and Stephan Emig on drums are wonderful in the rhythm section. The album is conceptual and is third in the trilogy of the story of Joan of Arc.

It opens with the haunting ambience of Conspiracy and then the glorious melodies of  Compassion for Misery.

Echoes from the Past is a catchy track and i particularly enjoyed Danger. Other highlights  include Deceptive Glory and the incredible  Warning Signs.

The Pyre is the track that concludes Joans fate and  it is Farewell that brings down the curtain on this trilogy. Eloy are indispensable space prog and they are still innovative and excellent musicians after all these years
