MAMMOTH SPECIAL

Well, it's edge of folk, prog and perhaps even pop. There are songs that makes me push rating higher, but there are also ones that I hate and found quite useless. Just Enough Like Home would be one of disputable ones. There are strings, melody, nice guitar work (I like it here, but it's not much to be heard), but it sounds like Bee Gee's "How Deep Is Your Love", or at least is similar. Next one, A Glimpse of Me is also strange, I found vocal here quite irritating, but other elements suggests prog sound. Probably, very strange sound, I really don't know what to think about it.

And about songs in general, there are better and worser, but I lack country element from their debut, which is good for prog (I suppose), but I'm afraid that they replaced it with pop and that's bad thing. Mostly shorter ones, but they are full of promising ideas. Late on Lady Day, if they just made it longer, spanning few minutes, it could be great prog hit (watch bass line here, strong one). And others are again, perfect, or little bit worse, as Jan with its "ye olde" style with one. Same with next track, The Stonehouse (reminds me King Crimson's second release with its "peaceful" ending song). Only disappointment is a bonus track. And after giving it fair chance (more listens), it's little bit better. Still average track, nothing perfect, but not completely failure.

4(-) guys and girls, there's just too much good things for me to give lesser. Even I agree that some of things shouldn't be here. Pleasant successor to their debut, but by my opinion, can't beat
