THE BLINDING DARKNESS

I`ve been following this group since their debut with "Arrive alive" back in 81 and i am pleased to hear that they still have the same energy,they still rock! Hearing them reminds me most of Marillion,the way they build up a song from quiet parts with vocals to bombastic rock with crying guitar and growling taurus pedals.Ronnie brown`s keyboards is very present in every song,the mellotron/novatron that he used to play on is now replaced with samplers but it sounds great.I find many so called Neo-prog groups a bit dull,they seem to repeat themselves over and over again but that is not the case with these boys,they are great,one of the best group in their genre! If you like the music a little bit heavy with softer parts in between and the whole thing backed up with symphonic sounds ...this is for you!
