MINDREVOLUTIONS

Kaipa has developed their own unique style in the symphonic prog camp over the last years, and this release is a fine follow-up to the well-received 2003 album Keyholder. The 26-min long title track is a true achievment, a symphonic masterpiece with loads of exciting instrumental passages. The remaining tracks are all high quality, with slightly more instrumetal space than on their previous efforts. My only (slight) reservation with Kaipa anno 2005 is concerned with the vocals, somehow they tends to sound a little too 'sweet' and fairytaily for my liking. This is only a minor growl from me, the album is solid symphonic prog, and is utterly recommended!
