Hailing from Belarus, 7 OCEAN started out back in the late '80s and recorded a handful of albums before disbanding following the passing of original drummer Igor Mihasev. The band revived again in 2004 and has released new albums at regular intervals ever since. "Son of Sun" is the third full-length album to be officially issued by the band since their return, and was released through the Russian label MALS Records in 2016.

Accessible, melodic progressive rock with a strong vintage orientation is what 7 Ocean provides us with on their new release "Son of Sun". And while the compositions may well have been crafted some time back in the day, they have stood the test of time rather well, as far as I can tell. An album that merits a check by those who know and love progressive rock as it was explored in the mid to late '70s by bands such as Camel and Genesis.
