Gryphon
The use of folk instruments creates an engaging contrast with the high-energy, intricate arrangements found throughout. It feels like an old, dusty manuscript brought to life through a playful and historically curious spirit.
Coming out while the British prog movement was at its height, the album finds its own path by focusing on acoustic textures. The raw, intimate recording style emphasizes the band's technical skill and their unique ability to connect ancient melodic structures with experimental modern ideas.
