ALBION - WABIAC CIENIE - 2005

This is really a wonderful neo prog piece of music. Ok, some people will say there's also nothing new, but so what? If you like melodic, well crafted songs, great musicanship (with lots of tasteful guitar solos and keyboards interplay) and a fine female singer there's no way you won't be captivated by this band. It's all sung in polish but actually you don't really have to understand the words to be moved by Katarzyba Sobckowicz-Malec interpretations. This CD is a great improvement over their first two effords (which were really one CD really, the second being a re-recording of most of their debut, which I believe was just a demo). Don't get me wrong, I bought them both and I like them, but Webiac Cienie really shows Albion going one step further developing their own sound and promising a great future. Not one filler song in here.If you're into early Marillion, Clepsydra, La Tulipe Noire, Pendragon, Collage and other great melodic bands, you should not miss this one.
