LOVE OVER FEAR

Unfortunately, this brand new album from Pendragon didn't meet my expectations. Sonically, it resembles me partly Not Of This World, with a good production, and apparently Mr Barret intended to revert back to 90s/early 00s material sound. While having its strong moments, like in 'Truth and Lies' with guitar soloing and supporting rythm section, the album lacks signature melodic lines like in 90s and even Pure and Passion material. Second in a row failed to meet my personal expectations album, though it's definitely a better one comparing to 'Men Who Climb Mountains'. I'm a huge Pendragon fan, but I must acknowledge, that IQ nowadays is in much better shape, what is proved by their recent efforts. P.S. Surprisingly, not too many reviews are posted on progarchives since the album's release, and most of them are very positive.
