To be perfectly honest, my expectations were below zero when I received the third album from the French outfit Silence, as their previously released effort "Utopia" was a pretty uninspired and dull affair. Two years later I won't believe my ears when I first listened to "Nostalgia" as already the opener "Stupid Man" knocked me out of my pants - pure Journey flavoured killer AOR stuff similar to the debuts from Urban Tale and 91 Suite and don't think this is just an one off shot. The entire album is of this high standard and I can easily say that this is the best AOR release up to date from the land of the baguettes. Both thumbs up for this nice surprise and AOR lovers shouldn't wait a second to order a copy ! |
