Killing Me • I felt that all my senses were leaving me as I heard the sentence • dead • the figures of the judges as if magically vanished here before me • darkness • too late • no time before us • if my head falls down ones again • white and slender angels who would save me but than all at once there came • deadly • over my spirit and I felt just every fibre in my frame thrill • killing me • it will not take a minute • but I’ll bleed forever more • then came back the beating of my heart and then a pause and all is black again • if all is not lost there is some immortality for man beyond the grave
With its debut album, this young band from Vienna follows the footsteps of honorable Austrian prog masters like "Matter Of Taste". The music on this concept album is not of the kind I'd call particularly innovative - it travels pretty much on well known roads paved by many others long ago. However, these youngsters do it in a highly pleasant way, skillfully avoiding the pitfalls of pseudo-progressive phrase rehashing most of the time - certainly more successfully so than several of their experienced grand paragons of prog.

Silk est donc un album d’excellente qualité dans son exécution: les musiciens sont compétents et la production de haut niveau. S’il ne pas touché personnellement, je vous recommande néanmoins d’y jeter une oreille. Stéphane Gallay
