Crossover Prog

Full-bodied, big-hearted music from The Flower Kings' lead singer, and certainly not the same as them, but likeable nonetheless. Alternative avenues are explored within its realm, but it never strays enough (for me at least) from the path that it's trying to follow. It all ends up (not surprisingly) with the last track trying to replicate a Flower Kings finale.
