ALL THE DREAMS

The band's next step. During those two years after releasing their recent album THE ADEKAEM protagonists and composer duo Andrzej Bielas and Krzysztof Wala have culled all their sentimental dreams appearing in one way or another. And then immediately managed to set this into new music. The production also draws on a few tracks that were leftovers from former 'The Great Lie' sessions. Furthermore important to know, the band's core now is enlarged to a trio, due to Jakub Bason, who is responsible for the lyrics in particular. Concerning bass, drums and the vocals several other musicians are collaborating, all are known for being active already with other bands deriving from the comprehensive prog pool in Poland.

When considering the band's entire catalogue I'd still prefer the 2021 release 'The Great Lie' anyhow. What you will get here on 'All The Dreams' are ten nice accessible tracks, aiming to offer something melodic and charming, most certainly. However, more drifting into popular fields in this case, actually getting close to the likes of Tears For Fears, Simple Minds or Cutting Crew maybe. Just to note the short excerpt Something Is Coming for instance. Probably just being some of those leftovers, The Geographer and the album title track are convincing much on the other hand, when considering the expected progressiveness and trickiness. Nice album, but not necessarily a must have.
