RELAYER

Everything that the 2-LP "Tales From Topographic Oceans" lacked is on this album": power, ideas, excitement and, last but not least, ... an inspired keyboardplayer named Patrick Moraz, nicknamed 'The Swiss Poodle'. The epic track "The Gates of Delirium" features amazing shifting moods, biting guitar licks and sensational keyboards flights and the following "Sound Chaser" contains one of the most mindblowing intro's, what a propulsive guitar riff! The final song "To Be Over" is not really my cup of tea but this is a matter of taste. My last words in this review concerns the awful review from Robert LePlant: if your aim was to attract attention with your offensive language you got what you wanted but I hope that such a negative behavior doesn't belong to be rewarded in the future, Prog Archives! By the way, Robert, please go to a shrink, you need help before you will use other ways and places to let your hugh frustrations go....
