A TIME OF DAY

Finally we have new studio material from these swedish super quartet, and among the years i really hope that the band can still together for quite long.Every year i checked ANEKDOTEN´s site expecting the worst, but it seems that they won´t share ANGLAGARD´s faith for the prog sake. The album started with "the great unknown" and inmediatly remind us the previous GRAVITY album. The next track "30 pieces" has a beatiful flute played by Gunnar Bergsten that goes very well with the band style.In the instrumental track "every step I take" is curious how close to the sound of the post-rock band GODSPEED YOU BLACK EMPEROR can be.Anyway, it´s the same ANEKDOTEN sound but it´s really a less depresed album than the others and a little bit slow for my taste.Nevertheless, we have powerfull tracks like "In for a ride" as great as "from within", "hole" or some many other. I don´t know if it´s unfair to compare "A Time of Day" with the previos records, but we always expect more from such a great bands like ANEKDOTEN, I give the album 4 stars because i don´t think it´s another VEMOD or NUCLEUS, in fact, it´s a little bit different maybe because there is a 10 years gap from those albums, but now the difference is that the ARTWORK it´s just PERFECT!!!

No matter what, it´s still highly recommended album and a must for any ANEKDOTEN fan.
