5 stars I've come to view this as an antithesis of today's most massive prog and generally music trends. In the world full with overlayered ocean of sounds that substitute apparent comfort for the lack genuinely good melodic ideas, the world where a charismatic frontman is a requirement for musical (and critical!) success, SILHOUETTE comes in, without any apparent cool-factor, with everything on the sleeve, trying their best and barely succeeding holding the tunes together...

... but in the end, nothing matters, because these guys might be one of the most perfect melody makers modern music has ever witnessed. They musically state is as the sole requirement and they fully succeed. This is a music that cannot lie. It never plays cool, being often very fragile... but it goes unhurt from beginning to the end, enshrouding everything with its mesmerizing beauty.

Key songs: "In Solitary", "Lost Paradise".
