They are still alive and they are even better and grown up. They combine on Legacy all the styles from their further records to a pure psychedelic experience. Warm tunes intervined by progressive attacks (sax) give the songs a strong drive for thze journey. Most of the tracks are packed in suites to give them thematic cohesiveness. This gives a strong 70s feel but without the failure of phoney bombast. The guita work is stron as ever and still alone worth listening. As a sweetspot it has a marvellous Malleus cover which suite the all over theme of the record as well. I hope the title was no hint of quitting and they will come around on tour to bring this excellent stuff to the people (and me of course).

This band gets better every record. New to the sound is saxophones and clarinette - played by Steven Mann. That makes the sound more jazzy/proggy. We would call it an acid-space-prog rock. Sometimes we thought of "Van der Graaf" or "Procupine Tree". Listen to some of the MP3s on the net! Donīt miss it!
