Position in Discography: Eighth
Fear Factor: Moderate
Familiar with this artist? No
Familiar with the genre or subgenre? A little
Average RYM Score: 3.30
Not really sure what I'm listening to here. Sounds mostly like folk, maybe a dash of country, not bad but nothing really remarkable leaping out at me. There's a nice kind of almost African or tribal anyway rhythm to “Cut Connection”, first time anything has caught my interest on this album. Reminds me a bit of late 70s/early 80s Peter Gabriel too. “Unsaid” has a very Kate Bush feel about it, circa The Dreaming and “Pegasi” is good too. Okay, it took a while but I think I got into this in the end. Not bad. Not bad at all.
