5 stars A truly convincing new album by PFM. A this point in time I felt they were just an "old- dinosaurs" band , capable of a good live rendition of their 70's masterpieces , but no more than that.

As a matter of fact Ulisse and Serendipity are , in my opinion very deluding CD's if you are looking for prog music.

Something good and new was in their Live in Japan (CD version only) that contains "Sea of Memory" with Peter Hammil singing.

Now "Dracula" : form the very beginning , with "Overture" up to the end "Come una Rondine" it is a fantastic succession of modern (sometime almost metal prog sounds) , orchestral moments , good keyboards and guitar solos , excellent rhythmic and interesting vocal parts.

In other words , PFM 2005 style , just partially looking back to the 70's.

A true masterpiece , 5 stars.

Ciao.
