STORMS OVER STILL WATER

After the disappointment of the album dedicated to Lord of the Rings and reaching the limit of their traditional style with Passsangers, Mostly autumn clearly opted for the latest neo-prog trends to compose this disco-inspired one, one of the most rockers of their career. They gave free rein to keyboardist Iain Jennings, the true protagonist of the album. In addition, Heather explores new registers of her voice that breathe new air into her way of singing and help the variety of the album.

The fast-paced and powerfully epic rhythms of "Out Of The Green Sky", "Broken Glass", "Ghost In Dreamland", "Black Rain" and "Coming To...", contrast with the precious and emotional ballads of "Heart Life". " and "Carpe diem", and show the two sides of one of their best albums: melancholy folk and changes to energetic climates with vehement guitar solos.

"Carpe diem": begins with a haunting and romantic keyboard and is followed by a haunting violin. The piano accompanies Heather's light soprano singing to create a melancholic climate with atmospheric organ to reach a long and brilliant Gilmour-esque guitar solo that helps to culminate this great theme.

"Ghost In Dreamland" is the other great jewel of the album, although it is misunderstood, but it is difficult for a rock singer to reach the heights and registers that Heather expresses here. The organ work is second to none and sets the devilish rhythm of the theme.
