The Burden of Paradise, by Different Light

The Burden of Paradise

by Different Light

supported by

Sven B. Schreiber (sbs) Long before, I've already purchased the other three "Different Light" albums currently available, and this one already was on my wishlist. I don't understand why it had to stay there for so long, because it's just as brilliant as the other ones. Symphonic rock with a nice retro feeling and great melodies at its best! Absolutely nothing to criticize here. Favorite track: At First Light.

Boris Stalf Cause it is just gorgeous. Great melodies, great vocals. Favorite track: Waking Moment.

Such good prog needs to be rewarded with another purchase! So I quickly closed the gap between the first and third albums in my collection. In case you want to get a first glance at this band's works, I recommed the third one. It's the most brilliant so far. Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)

Whilst delivering well crafted music, unless you focus on the lyrics, you could miss the story lines. This is the last of the war trilogy, so subtle ,but so poignant. Superb music with broken road and Holding On ,on permanent repeat. Listen and become enthralled. Top quality song writing and musicianship.10/10 kzra

FALL

As with previous releases this is a solid album from start to finish which continues the storyline, themes and signatures perfectly. 'Enigma' and 'Another Same' are on par with or superior to many commercial offerings by established prog artists. The Waters, Wilson and Hayward influences shine through once more but I also hear song writing very much in the style of Difford and Tilbrook, 'Trough of War' & 'Another Same' probably being the best examples. These chaps are the real deal! rex-the-younger
