#22 - Top of 2012

Flying Colors - Flying Colors

In number 22, this is the debut album of the Prog Rock supegroup conceived by Mike Portnoy, Neal Morse, Steve Morse and producer Bill Evans as a more straightforward  radio-friendly project.Their second album has also been featured in the top list for 2014 (here is its review) and although superior to this debut (hence its higher place in that list), this album is not devoid of good qualities either.

Being the band's debut album, there is still a feeling of exploration here and there is less focus than in "Second Nature". Despite that this album is also an excellent listen and one of the most easy to listen progressive records of 2012

All in all a very promising debut from a supergroup that here delivers exactly what was expected of it; high calibre good music.


93/100
