So here is a band that I already liked with some of my favorite artists guest staring on it.
The album has one of my favorite vocalists on the last track in Mark Trueack, a wonderful keyboard player on another song in Sean Timms, Daniel Lopresto does vocals and guitars on yet another song.
These three who I consider great musicians, and have all played my house were out done by guest artist Marek Arnold, who’s sax is wonderful on this album. It really does remind me of his work on UPF and Damanek.
Daniel Lopresto also does really well on lead vocals. I may have the opportunity to see them live later in the year and it will be interesting to see how they cover these tracks if they do indeed play them live.
The album is wonderful but I never had any spine chilling moments that I reserve for my 5 star reviews. Pick this album up and enjoy it. I am sure you will.
ALBUM HIGHLIGHTS: My Time of Your Life, Never Last, Black Air, The Impossible.
