A Fine Stormy Weather = Papersleeve = (CD)
Dracma have an obvious Camel sound overall but with other more Spanish influences thrown in as well, such as Bloque etc, especially with the domineering guitar work. Also certain moments recall Anderson/Bruford/Wakeman/Howe. Opening track, "Beating Life" is impressive, plenty of Latimer-like guitar and some intersting dynamics in the rhythm section, while the brief acoustic guitar interlude, "Portrait of Falgars" is a nice Steve Howe-ish piece. The 10 minute "Inner Castle" will keep keyboard fans happy with plenty of Wakeman-esque trills livening up the proceedings. All the tracks, bar two. are in the 7-11 minute range, culminating with the 11-minute plus mini-epic, "Inside Out". The album is beautifully produced, managing to sound modern (but not too clean) and old at the same time. On the minus side, the Spanish inflection on the English lyrics can grate at times while the guitar tone never really changes throughout. (Although the same criticism could probably be levelled at the great Camel themselves!!) Overall, a very worthwhile buy. Papersleeve edition.
