PROG REVIEWER

Awesome release from awesome Russian band.At leats I've found Neo-Prog in my land!:-) Great CD (surely,with some lacks:-) - as low budget of record etc),really!It opens with nice "1-2-3-4-5" with some moments ,which have reminded me of QUEEN(or even KANSAS),has awesome "Playing this Game" with IQ-like riffs,but my favourite one is closing "No matter of our Lives",pure neo-prog in MARILLION/COLLAGE/SHADOWLAND- like style!..Highly recommended to all Prog/Neo-Prog lovers:if you are tired with all that modern bands who do not know what they're doing you should try NYL!!!These guys are professionals and they're in prog for almost last 15 years!!!A Musthave for all Neo-Freaks

The Russian band NYL bring to us a very complex mixture of several styles of prog music in a neo- symphonic prog packing. You can perceive a significant influence from Queen, Kayak Styx and some other Arena Rock bands, give to the listener a strong sensation of Deja-Vu.!!! However ,this sensation is very pleasant, due to the competence of the musicians in work with the influences and at the same time reveal a self identity. The albun show a variety of rhythms and melodic lines drastically different in each track., which makes the audition easy! Individually the musicians are very competent, although no one be a virtuoso, the band shows a cleary cohesion . Due to this my rate is 4 stars !!!
