Album Notes & Community Reviews

Deeply indebted to the classic era of Italian progressive rock, 'Ancient Afternoons' is characterized by sweeping mellotrons, classical flute, and theatrical vocal arrangements. The meticulous symphonic rock compositions feel entirely displaced from the musical landscape of 1990.
