This post probably came from out of the blue, since I haven't written in awhile. I would promise to not make awful puns anymore, but unfortunately, it happens often and when you least expect it. Stay alert and travel in pairs, people.
When I hear the word "orchestra" I think of symphonies and old men glaring at me because I clapped before the set was over (which is just wishful thinking to the point of idiocy). However, to my great relief, it was pretty much a typical progressive rock album. Actually, some of the tracks didn't even sound that progressive; they felt like they could be unpopular Beach Boys songs.
The whole thing was rather unremarkable. And what is with the cover art? With art like that, there should have been some cheesy space sound effects. I mean, I would have complained about that too but at least there wouldn't be consistency issues.
Easily skippable. I promise I will try to write more than once in a blue moon. That was the last one, I swear.
RATING: 3/5
