3 stars Concerning the 11 subtitles of this 37-minute album, a soaring intro with "Pandora's box" heavy, heavy announcing the atmosphere of the CD a bit like INCEPTION, very spleen cello on the 2nd, piano and violin in backdrop on the 3rd ("Alienated" and "Immersed"), a long development on "the thorn in me" with dry guitar and flute at the start, it's relaxing without falling into repetition, we feel the research, the innovation among these musicians. "My stories" develops a synth base worthy of TANGERINE DREAM or calm SCHULZE with the first whispered voices while "A prospect of a blooming life" moves on to a catchy tune with piano and dry guitar. "It all becomes clear" takes on an almost chamber music air with development on the only song sung, finally you will see and a Gilmourian guitar which made me use the replay button!. "Home" takes us to distant and lonely countries with little sound effects, percussion and crystal clear guitar then again a military drum taking me towards "to the unknown man"! You have to wait for "narrative" to finally have a real Greek air on a title with the development of violins, acoustic guitars and saws à la "Delicatessen", it becomes enjoyable! "On the borderline" plays on a fast piano base reminding me here of "The photographer" but more symphonic. Finally with "A promise unkept" the longest title, it is an almost cheerful ending theme, jazzy, crystalline with the different variations of synths, almost Canterbury, we can find CAMEL or even CARAVAN there, pay attention here to the final solo which you awakens you from this distant meditative and introspective musical journey.(3.5)
