CNQ 105CD
With a band/project name like this, no one is going to be surprised that the main influence you will hear is classic-era Genesis!
“I'm going to set the research aside and just let myself be carried away by the music.
The Book of Revelations isn't exactly a revelation in itself, but musically, it's a great piece of work. It draws heavily from the world of Peter Gabriel-era Genesis and Fish-era Marillion two of my greatest musical most beloved bands, so it's hard for me to be impartial. What I hear, I really like. And I find it genuinely impressive.
Chapter 2: Olympus Mons is an intriguing and evocative title. It makes me want to go back and explore a possible Chapter 1 maybe there's something there that connects to the beginning of this whole concept.
The music is very well executed. The analog keyboards and 12-string guitars give it that unmistakable '70s atmosphere. The bass and drums are crisp and clear, everything is played with precision and warmth. The vocals have a strong resemblance to Peter Gabriel and Fish, and at times I also hear echoes of Pendragon.
But The Book of Revelations still sounds original. If anything, it leans more toward classic prog than neo- prog, with a vintage spirit that feels genuine rather than derivative.
Honestly, I had a great time listening to this album. It's nearly an hour long, with 11 tracks that kept me engaged throughout. A very enjoyable listen.” - progarchives
