                My impressions:

                DISC ONE

                Out of the Woods (2:41): a pretty orchestral introduction. Lively and cinematographic.

                The Hollow Lands (7:37): epic beginning (it reminds me of “Quadrophenia”, The Who), then it becomes a more solid rock song. During the central jam beautiful interaction between guitar, flutes and violins.

                Through the Veil (16:01): at the moment, my favorite song of the album. The structure and the main solid guitar riff remind me of “Starhammer”, but this is more varied. As you can imagine, the song has a long jam in the central part, dynamic and with many changes of rhythm. Great communication between the band and the orchestra. A triumph of sounds. Very prog!! The final reprise of the main theme is magnificent!

                Doldrums (3:07): instrumental. Ethereal and dreamy.

                Into the Gyre (10:22): Fairytale, melodic beginning. Very soft. Second part: more dramatic and loud. Great guitar riff and good work of the violins. Third part: faster!! Kenneth is fast, Snah is god. Fourth part: melancholy and suffused.

                Flotsam (1:33): instrumental. Only a violin. Silky and low.

                DISC TWO

                Oh, Proteus – A Prayer (7:35): enigmatic and fairy. Very melodic theme.

                Sculls in limbo (2:21): an interlude. Noises in the silence. Almost a Supersilent song.

                La Lethe (7:53): instrumental. Very calm and quiet in the beginning, then the song has noisy and orchestral openings. A trumpet solo before the loud and cinematographic end.

                Oh, Proteus – A lament (1:05): short reprise of the first song.

                Sharks (7:56): very intimate beginning. Bent sings soft and inspired. It reminds me the melody of an old MP song: “Celestine”. But this is more varied and dramatic in the final crescendo.

                Mutiny! (8:33): very energetic song. Fast and vibrant. Probably the most rocking song on the album. Great refrain!

                Into the Mystic (7:05): rock, but bright and airy. Incredible space-digression in the final part. Just a word: magic!

                    I thought that it would be released February 10, but I found it this morning in Milan!

                      Perhaps you know it, but (at least in Italy) the album is already out. I have my copy and I'm listening to it right now for the first time. It seems to me that the album requires many plays to be assimilated…
