That wouldn't be very hard. It's been a very poor year for our genres.

[KarpetRydOFunk]

As Glen would say, "v nice."

would be pretty hard to top my top 5....all of which are excellent. Quality pretty much drops off a cliff after that

Sure does. What an insanely weak year.

[Y&TForever]

definitely SAMEY sounding, but luckily SAMEYNESS doesn't both me...love this band.

[Mr.AOR]

Nice... 

 

[Glen]

it's so effortless for these guys.

perfect production 

[AlphaMale]

Excellent! Highly anticipated.

[lettard]

Now we're talking, modern classic AOR.

Great tribute to Burning Heart! 

[Glen]

excellent album - just really strong polished AOR all the way through.

No filler, great production. 

[Mafisen]

Vere classy, but it's too soft for me. Songs are so melodic though, so I'll give this a few spins. I used to love this stuff back in the day, so I hope I can get back in to it. 

[Jez]

Really good, but that was to be expected. 4 great albums on the bounce now. Not many can say that in recent years

[Mr.AOR]

Listened to this earlier today and I have to say this just oozes class and is a perfect example of how to create a fantastic sounding modern AOR album. A few of the tracks immediately reminded me of other artists. Agree with kourosofsteel3 on the burning heart comparison with Another Night and also with lettard on the Foreigner vibe of Let Me Dream. Also Sunstorms Love Gone Wrong came to mind when I heard Scars To Prove It and Gotta Get Out has a Magic Dance vibe, reminded me of  Cut Beneath The Skin. Anyway you slice it this is a fantastic album and the 4th one on the trot.

Really nice album. A couple towards the end I'm not completely in love with, and the opener... but mostly, it's very nice. I will put it out there, though, and it may not be met too well.

But I will say the overall vibe for me on this album was actually that of a really great Lionville album - as in their best yet. But overall, for me at least in the early stages, not quite a truly brilliant WOA album. 

Either way, it's still damn good and will be heard frequently.

Not on par with their previous 3 albums?

For me personally, In Progress is their strongest followed by their debut.

I'll give it more spins but initially, yes, it's my fourth favourite album in their discography;

1. In Progress

2. Artwork

3. Framework

4. Exhibits

And it should be noted, all winners.  

[Glen]

yeah for me you are probably talking a range of 95% down to a minimum of 85% which is pretty amazing for a run of 4 albums. 

if I had one minor gripe it would be some songs are starting to sound a bit similar so for me I welcomed the odd veer to the proggy keys etc as it made for something a bit different from them 

[Tabe]

This is an excellent album.  Nice mix of sounds.  Am really loving the retro tune "Let Me Dream".  Has a lot of Foreigner's "Waiting For a Girl Like You" in it, only more up-tempo.  There's a couple other bands in it, too, but I'm drawing a blank on who it sounds like.  Great song though.

on Yotube in the video for Another Night, the drummer has become a focus of attention, lol

I don't know why they filmed from that angle.
