4 stars Starting with something brilliant, and I mean this work,is a great album that these guys just offer to us,they are Taking some styles like a la, gentle giant, anglagard, Yes and Genesis.This album for me is one of the best in this 2009, a criticism could be the length of the album that are just 35 minutes, but really 35 minutes of magic, a truly enveloping music as a sequence of a epic story.

Wobbler has taken influences from the best progressive rock bands in history and has its own originality.with this album you will not get bored,this is very catchy.

I do not know if any of you are a lover of video games, but I find many similarities with the music of Afterglow album in a game of the Nintendo 64 as BANJO KAZOOIE, A world of magic, fairies, bears, honey, giant ants, beautifuls colors, tunnels, caves, questions and a lot of strange people and creatures.This album for me is a fantasy come true, I liked the term, although I hope it will not take so long to get Their next album, which was long pending.

this album does not find many vocal parts, this album is almost instrumental, really well done.

I will make two examples of this great album:

Imperial wine winter: 9:30 to 11:10 : it's simply incredible, as is connecting sounds with a simple melody that transports you to another world unimaginable.

In Taberna: anglagard it sounds very similar to, but from 9:15 to 10:23 we get a demonstration of what progressive rock is amazing.

Armory: this songs is a fantasy,it sounds very crazY and Funny, magic, spells, medieval times, situations, dreams, possibly the best song with just 3:00 minutes,This song could easily fit in the next game of banjo kazooie,i am not joking.

This is one of the best works of this Year; Check it...almost a five star album..4.4 stars.

five stars songs 2. Imperial Winter Withe- 4. In taberna. - 5. Armoury

four star songs 1. the haywain

Tree star songs 3. interlude
