But I expect really good hooks in my AOR / prog crossover stuff...and these guys just don't deliver.
In fairness, had this been referred to me via "Love or Hate?" I'd probably have given it a Like but not a Love. For me, meh means pretty much what you say, but if I find something decent in among the dross it can often lift it out of mehland and into Like City or even Lovetown. Not so with this one though. Thanks for the info on that track, didn't know that. They are very Asia for much of the album though aren't they?
That Waken Eyes album sounds pretty competent by the way. Bit o' early 90's Fates Warning in there.[/QUOTE]
I'll be keeping an eye on them for sure.
