![]() I'm becoming a bit obsessed with this one and reckon if it had come out in 1971, it would be considered a classic of it's genre.Īnyone else heard this? What else is worth checking out by the band? They are touring in the new year, do they still sound like this? There are solid british folk-rock influences in there, Penangle, early Fairport, Tull and it expands beyond it's rootsy base in a way that qualifies as being prog, there's loud, angular guitar parts ( a little Sabbathy), tracks broken up and fused into single extended tracks like "Wanting Comes in Waves/Repaid". It's a rock opera based around a pagan folk story, complete with guest vocalists and musical themes which reccur throughout the album, and throughout individual tracks. ![]() ![]() I was made aware of the band through them having done a Grateful Dead cover on their last album, but was intrigued by the idea of this one, and it really hasn't disappointed at all. I've just got this and have really been getting into it over the last few days.
