Album Notes & Community Reviews
Written and recorded partially at Peter Gabriel's Real World Studios during the COVID-19 pandemic, the twentieth album from the neo-progressive rock veterans serves as an urgent plea for environmental and societal awareness. The meticulously crafted, heavily orchestrated compositions combine their signature soaring guitar melodies with complex, multi-part suites addressing climate change and human resilience.
