Fruupp's two weakest albums on one CD.

One track from each album has been omitted though to make this a single CD. Unfortunate, this means the best track from Modern Masquerades has been omitted. This is also their best track from their final two albums. What remains is watered out, cabaret sounding pomp rock with little appeal to symphonic prog heads. The best album is The Prince of Heaven's Eyes which has some hints of their excellent two first albums. There are some Genesis references here. The Modern Masquerades album contains cabaret sounding pomp rock which is painful for those of us who really liked their first two albums. My verdict is therefore to go for the first two albums and to forget this one unless it is picked from a bargain bin.
