Album Notes & Community Reviews

Embracing seasonal themes, the British progressive rock group crafted a deeply thematic and classical-influenced conceptual work with 'The Spell'. Driven by Robert John Godfrey's expansive keyboard orchestrations, the album eschews traditional rock formats for grandiose, symphonic structures. It remains a uniquely atmospheric offering in the band's catalog, steeped in esoteric and romantic sensibilities.
