Hmm...  Didn't know they had a new album out.  After I make enough to cover rent I'm pretty sure I'll have to get it!

Brandy has been with them playing the bass for some time. At least 3 or 4 years, and the last 2 albums (now I have to look) have her playing in it. The family band, Silas is the son and playing keyboards, and I think he's only playing the presets, and is not a strong enough player to add anything to the band, but he's had a good 3 or 4 years now, and might be getting better.
 
All in all, this last album is not even gathering reviews, and I found that sad. The album before, did not have any pieces of music that stood out, like some did on Erpland, or Strangeitude ... their strongest time.

Reminded me more of Fleetwood Mac the Rumour years than being a Prog band.

The only two albums by FM that I like are "Bare Trees" and the album "Penguin". The albums with the over rated witch is not to my tastes at all!

my two favourite prog albums of the last 12 months:

Flying Colors - Second Nature

Lonely Robot (John Mitchell) - Please Come Home

That Flying Colours vid, when the vocals kick in,
 
Would you like to see within my heart?
Would you like to be there when I fall apart?
 
I just want to replace "fall apart" with "fart."
 
Sorry.
 
Nice song though... I think I might look into that further

The Flying Colors album is pretty good, but the Lonely Robot one is better! 

I have just listened to the EP. The other two tracks are a bit Proggier (whatever that is). I get the Fleetwood Mac comparison on Islands.
 
Now i am listening to Mostly Autumns "Dressed in Voices". The Band has got much darker and heavier since Heather left.

don't hear any 'prog' here.
 

Hi,
 
Not really a FM copy for my tastes, but just a nice pop song ... with a typical singer for a pop song.
 
No matter how nice it might be, commercial music is all the same, just about. We need something new.
