As the title kind of suggests, it's about vampires and ghoulishness, I guess.
At times, they remind me of Yes; especially the high pitched vocals that sound slightly 'throaty'. I like IQ a lot and this album is typical IQ at times, with some emphasis on heavy riffs, verging on heavy metal. Also, some nice soundscape backgrounds and atmospheric touches. (Knucklehead)
At times, like Yes and also a touch of Genesis with some heavy metal type riffs.
I like the songs a lot. Big stadium stuff and played so well. IQ are an awesome band and the vocalist is spot on. Great epic double album and worth a listen. It has lots of quirks rhythmically and stylistically. It's a really varied listen with some manic moments too.
It may be me, but IQ always sound quite sad to me. Something about that guy's voice......
Great album and the playing is superb. So precise.
