THE WAKE

Time for the second album, nothing special again (I'm listening to all their albums). They were trying to find their own sound, but again it's very similar to their prog heroes. I think there's more cohesive material, better arrangements, but I can't stop thinking and remembering classic songs, and again a bit boring for me, especially the synths and mellotron used during the entire album, it's 1985... There were many synths and possibilities at that time and they chose the most strident ones. Anyway, a good album anyhow, but not for me. Hoping to find a better album, maybe a chronological listening is not always the better choice.
