Release Notes:
Here we have Prog Rock in the post-BritPop era. It's a bit of a
wilderness, obviously, but this Surrey quartet make a good fist of
things. If only they could decide whether they want to be Muse, Yes or
Bloc Party - the combination of the three on show here is odd, to say
the least. Opener 7844 shouts and punk-pops itself into fuzzed-up
angles but the following Surprises. . . does just that, with wafting
vocal harmonies from topographic oceans over more sharp guitars. Cracks
booms and riffs matters up into Bellamy territory (sans falsetto, you
may be relieved to hear), whilst Safe Hands returns us to the bosom of
Yes once more.
