Product description

"Every prog band worth their salt really should do a double album, shouldn't they?" asks Frost* frontman Jem Godfrey. This was one of the initial ideas as the band's songwriter/keyboardist/vocalist approached working on Frost*'s 5th studio album Life in the Wires due out on Oct. 14th, 2024 on InsideOutMusic. The album is Frost* at its most ambitious, offering nearly 90 minutes of music over 14 exquisite tracks. The album is the brainchild of Godfrey who was inspired to create the conceptual world for the album based on the group's previous release Day and Age (2021). Fans of the band's masterful debut album Milliontown (2006) will enjoy the band revisiting the style that made that debut album one of the most successful prog rock albums of the last 20 years, a fact that was not lost on Godfrey as he was writing this new record. "With Day and Age, we made it a very specific point: we're not doing any solos, we'll do clever arrangements. And we enjoyed that discipline, but this time I thought it might be good to row back on that position a bit. Plus I wanted to have a little bit of a nod to Milliontown with this album, because it's been nearly 20 years since Milliontown came out and I'm still proud of it. The 15-minute title track has a few of those Milliontown moments in it which were great fun to do again." The album will be available as a Limited 2CD Edition, Gatefold 140g 2LP & as Digital Album, with stunning artwork by Carl Glover (Steven Wilson).

    Il deludente album che lo aveva preceduto, Day and Age, sembrava opera più che altro di John Mitchell, con le solite lagne alla Lonely Robot. Sembra quasi incredibile che Jem Godfrey, un bel giorno, abbia deciso che era arrivato il momento di sfornare un doppio album, si sia accomodato ai suoi synth e abbia tirato fuori, da solo, un capolavoro come Life in the Wires.

    I mostri esistono davvero, e Jem Godfrey è uno di loro. L'inventiva, la capacità di comporre, la maestria nell'eseguire, il talento di paroliere e quello straordinario di cantante, intenso come il primo Collins ma mai lamentoso come Hogarth. Ce n'era per accontentare parecchi musicisti, invece Godfrey si è preso tutto lui. Le sonorità ricordano forse il pop-prog a tratti boombastico, a tratti melodico e struggente, dei Genesis del periodo ATTWT e Duke, pur essendo assolutamente originali.

    Nell'album precedente ben tre diversi batteristi erano stati impiegati, con scarso successo, per sostituire il divino Craig Blundell, ormai troppo impegnato alle corti di Steven Wilson e Steve Hackett. Invece, altro miracolo, eccolo qui di nuovo, insostituibile maestro, a cesellare e scandire con la sua potenza espressiva la creatività di Godfrey.

    Il batterista fa la differenza, sempre, e non è mai stato così vero come nel caso di Blundell. Un doppio memorabile che resterà un ascolto fisso anche negli anni a venire, come già accaduto per Milliontown e Falling Satellites. Grazie infinite, Jem.

    An incredible album in my opinion. It tells a story that falls great for today's time.

    Questo gruppo è fantastico, conosciuti da un paio d'anni. Tra i miei preferiti gruppi prog insieme ai Rush e Porcupine Tree.
