SURRENDER

There are a number of reasons why I just can't get into this record ( and trust me i've listened to this at least 8 painful times). It's partly the accent on the vocals, partly the lack of flow in this record, partly the lack of melody , and lastly there is something that is either missing or maybe it's a combination of the above complaints, but I just can't get into this album at all. So there i've said it, and believe me I don't say this often when it comes to prog.

The one song I do like is "Devil's Siesta" which opens with cello and features fragile vocals and keyboards, and has interesting lyrics.

I'm in the minority with these opinions and thoughts so take them with a grain of salt.
