Grimspound is one of the best modern prog albums I have ever heard. It is full of songs stemming from the English history and folklore, delivered in an intricated and progressive way. The transition between songs is delicate and to perfection. Technical capabilities are of high standards but not over-complicated, lyrics are simple yet evocative and the overall inspiration is simply immense. Songs have the ability to stand-out themselves and be heard independently, however, a portion of the album's magic and atmosphere is lost if its note heard in its entirety. Recommendations: "Experimental Gentlemen", "Grimspound", "A Mead Hall In Winter", "Brave Captain"r
