3 stars The newest studio album to date is Book of days released in May 2008 and is again a good album, thir fifteen release from their catalogue. Nektar needed 4 years to come with this one, after Evolution from 2004. Well, the album alternates from melodic rock to more progressive arrangements, with catchy parts in Nektar's vein, but also has some funky beats on some parts, a thing that sounds intristing when is about Nektar music. Albrighton is again on top form, his voice is pleasent on every album he appear. A balance album overall with mid tepo pieces most of the time, with some fine hooks like opening track Over Krakatoa with neo prog leaning in parts. So, a good album, I still prefer Evolution before this one from newer albums, but this Book of days has enough good moments to be clasified as good, even is nothing realy special overall. 3 stars for sure.
