Album Notes & Community Reviews
Reaching the absolute pinnacle of their ambitious, keyboard-heavy approach, Germany's Eloy delivered a stunningly epic conceptual work concerning the rise and fall of Atlantis. 'Ocean' is a remarkably technical, heavily atmospheric masterclass in progressive space rock, weaving incredibly lush, deeply melodic symphonic textures into a profoundly immersive mythological journey.
