STORYBOOK

Thank God for some of the newer Italian Prog bands, who are giving us real Prog fans music we can enjoy and love in these modern times. When metal Prog and neo Prog have taken over the definition of Prog, its nice to see some bands no go that route, but take the lonlier, but more nobel, route of post- Canterbury style Prog. Some of these tracks are amazing. Gripping and strong largely instrumental Prog. When the singer sings, I sometimes want him to stop, he's a little atonal at times. But thats the exception, the music is largely pure prog for progressive people like you and me. Not jazzy at all really, just very Proggy. They're not going to knock D.F.A. off their mantel of best Italian Prog of the 90s/00s, but they're still very good.
