Naglfar
As Naglfar devours us all
And you get this through your head:
When Dan first announced his will to start a project called Second Sky, he said, on this very board, that he wanted to make an album that was like the beginning of "Eternal" and VERY proggy. Given "Eternal" is pretty much the only prog song on Alive Again, it is only natural to expect something in that vein.
Besides, by chorusless I didn't mean songs with no hooks whatsoever. But when you listen to The Closing Chronicles, it's a whole lotta different than Alive Again and Invisible. Sure the songs there have hooks too, but they're certainly darker and harder to pigeonhole. I'm a fan of Nightingale, but they have clearly opted for an 80's hard rock sound on the last couple of discs; and I simply favour Dan's other work such as Odyssey, Godsend, earlier Nightingale (TCC & I), and definitely Unicorn. I do NOT think Unicorn resembles Nightingale in any way.
Capiche?
Why get testy? Dag already told you what's coming.
