Rated 8/10

Definitely weird but I fuck with it. Love the proggy and the keys. Conceptually reminds me of Ulver's William Blake album. 4/5.

Rated 6/10

Fun Proggy nonsense 👍

Rated 2/10

Nope really didn’t enjoy this one, don’t need to hear a shitty keyboard version of classical songs. Gave me a headache. Trying to think of reasons for this needing to be on the list to avoid giving it 1 star. Some folk must like it but I really didn’t.

Rated 8/10

Synths cover of Modest Mussorgsky. Came out 1971 and sounds exactly like 90s jrpg fight music, chef's kiss no notes

Rated 4/10

Interesting, but likely would never listen on my own. I like Prog rock...but this is WAY out there. 2/5

Rated 4/10

Normally I would try and write this a bit more subtle and less crude.

I actually like symphonic rock but thought this was a whole bunch of wank.

One extra star for the musicianship

Rated 4/10

Somehow managed to be both melodramatic and utterly boring at the same time. Gives prog a bad name.

Rated 6/10

Moog-filled classical/prog what's not to love?

Rated 6/10

A British prog-rock super group's adaptation of a late 19th century classical suite... this could really only go one of two ways.

I enjoyed this album more than I anticipated I would. The calm chill of 'The Sage' and the raging ramble of the BabaYaga series of tracks culminating into 'The Great Gates of Kiev' were the real standouts for me.
