If you like Yes Druid is a nice band to check. Despite the lack of some originality, this English
band hasn't got anything to envy to the Masters. The melodies are fantastic, the arrangements are
full of dreamy mellotron layers and the singer has a pleasant high pitched voice and uses it in a
tasty way. We have also lots of Rickenbacker from the bass player and a melodic playing from the
guitarist. This is particularly evident on "Toward The Sun". Not quite as enjoyable as their
debut, "Fluid Druid" is a less pleasant follow-up. Perhaps stung by the "Yes Clones" accusations,
the band this time has tried to aim for a more original sounding collection. This they achieved
somehow, but the overall effect is less rewarding than its predecessor. Too bad that they didn't
have record any more after "Fluid Druid" as it shows some maturing songwriting from the band, and
a third album would probably been better if everything had gone in the right way. So, if you buy
the double CD of the two albums in only one package, it represents a good value, really.
