TEMPUS FUGIT's now two years old concept album has many strong moments. Their compositions are very strong. The album is very keyboard dominated with many instrumental passages and nice guitar playing. The only thing that keeps this album from getting the highest rating is the lack of originality, but after all there aren't that many symphonic and progressive bands today that has their own sound and trademarks. It's easy to find reminiscences to other bands on this album, there are bits and pieces that reminds of CAMEL, CAST, GENESIS, GLASS HAMMER, IQ, MARILLION, PENDRAGON and YES. The album cover is very nice and it looks quite expensive with a foldout booklet with the lyrics and very beautiful illustrations made by the bass player Bernard. All in all this is a very strong debut from this Brazilian band, and I hope they'll get the chance to release many albums in the future. Very Good.
