YEAR: 1996

Being a Neo-Prog band to the core, DRACMA haven't managed to escape from some genre's cliches (for example, their album opens with the sounds of children laughing), but the result is very, very good! Pieces like 'Portrait Of Falgars" and "Arenys" are short instrumental pieces in best CAMEL traditions, while other tracks are 7-11 minutes long epics recalling Fish-era MARILLION (to compare with). And believe my Neo experience, this is REALLY that good! Not a clone-type (like RED SAND), DRACMA manages to balance on "making their own music"/"looking into past". The only reason why I gave them 4 stars instead of DESERVED 5 stars is vocalist's terrible accent - I make an enormous effort to bear it while listen (while the voice itself is very good).
Highly recommended - it's a rare Neo gem that won't disappoint neither fans of the genre nor any other open-minded progger
