They're a good band, very underappreciated at this site, especially as they're famous enough to have a Wikipedia page.

Looks like it's just me reviewing that album. Oh well.

Hey, Mr Dachshund, how you been? Thank you. Yes, I've been AWOL from the Archives for several months (now that I look at it, most of the year ), just sorting through some things. Essentially a nasty mess of a relationship breakdown, an extreme virus lockdown here in Melbourne Australia (which has just eased a little a couple of days ago, but it lasted months), as well as having to try to start working from home. Definitely not too inspiring to try to enjoy music. Good times!

But I hope you and yours are alright, mate
All's good my friend. Hang in there. We all go through rough patches form time to time, but it gets better eventually.

Yep, finally someone else is appreciating this album as the great late career prog/art rock it is, don't sleep on the mission. Check out the song Red Storm, pure progressive rock.

Yes, you did have me wondering for a moment there, because I haven't seen any album reviews written by Otto von Bismarck. Tongue

I've been waiting awhile for someone to review The Reconstrukction of Light and TCat's review was worth the wait! Very nice, thanks.

Agree strongly with much of what you have to say about this excellent album FatherChristmas, I wrote a review as well rated just slightly lower at a strong 4 stars.
Thanks, Doug. I love Haken's new album, though I expect most will still prefer the Mountain. Wink

I was impressed with the review of Neal Morse's new album Sola Gratia by a new reviewer by the name of thesimilitudeofprog in that he covered well the music and story of this concept album about the early activities of the Christian apostle Paul. His review was very centered on the beauty of the music, as well as the proggy highpoints, and his review was detailed enough to show that this album is not a preaching session by Morse, which could turn off the non faithful. I'm going to give it a listen and that's saying a lot from a faithful agnostic.
