4 stars Fans of retro progressive rock will probably enjoy this release by Italian band Court.

The music here is mostly on the mellow and melodic side, folk-influenced acoustic guitar licks central in the compositions here. Flute (or flute sounding keys) further enhance the folk influences here. Variation to this sound is added by inserting slightly psychedelic 70's guitar riffs of the mellow variety in a few tunes; and the icing on the cake is frequent use of symphonic keyboard textures.

There's a couple of tunes here when the band decides to rock out - unsuccessfully - which are the main weak side of this release. The vocals may be a bit on the weak side too; but unless you're extremely sensitive about vocals performances it won't be bothersome.
