SILENT CRIES AND MIGHTY ECHOES

4.25: The eight album by Eloy, it was released in 1979. After hearing completely Ocean, I was exciting to know more material of this band, so I decided to take the next best reviewed. This album continues to have the style of the previous masterpiece, however it is not as good as that previous one. The lyrics mainly talks about the origin and purpose of mankind, they are well done and presented, although the way they are sung is not the best. Musically, it mainly contains really good synth and keyboard passages, in fact at some point they remind me to the floydian music, a lot of space rock and some heavy rock is presented, although he last one is less frequent that in the previous one. I considered it a good addition to any prog list, it has really good moments, and keep you entertained, but it is not a must to have.
