Their album "Departure" is basically a mixture of CAMEL and Anthony PHILLIPS, i.e. smooth, melodious prog, devoid of complex time signatures or radical mood swings. This is easy listening but it does have quite a dynamic flavour, thanks to some excellent drum play. The cd is made up of five fairly lengthy pieces and two bonus tracks (those two alone totalling 21 minutes).

Fans of CAMEL, ODYSSICE, TRIBUTE, Anthony PHILLIPS and GENESIS circa "Wind & Wuthering" will certainly enjoy.
