Progressive/symphonic prog. – SWITZERLAND
After a break of a full 38 years, the Swiss band Flame Dream is back „in the game“ with a new album titled „Silent Transition.“ During the previous phase of their career, their activity did not go unnoticed, as well as the release of 6 albums, some of which, like „Elements“ from 1979, perhaps garnered even more public attention than their other releases. At that time, the group was arranged with music from bands such as Genesis, Van Der Graaf Generator, or UK, although much of what they arranged musically can be considered an authentic approach.
