The Flower Kings - Banks of Eden (2012)

The latest release from one of the most respected names in neo-prog rock has the band writing some of their best tunes yet. All the songs are very passionate, adventurous and downright enjoyable. The band's technical skills on this album are top-notch, and the influences from bands such as Yes and Genesis are apparent and quite tasteful. Even after a five year hiatus, TFK prove that their prog abilities have not deteriorated. If anything, they've improved which is surprising considering the vast discography they already have. I have nothing else to say except this yet another solid release from a consistently good band.
