Mostly Autumn- Ghost Moon Orchestra (Mostly Autumn Records)
Ghost Moon Orchestra is the 2012 release of British prog-rock band Mostly Autumn and is their 10th studio album in a career spanning almost two decades. It has all the engaging elements that are representative of the band, including amazing female vocals by Olivia Spernnan and male vocals by Bryan Josh, excellent musicianship filled with guitar and keyboard tunes (by Iain Jennings) and an overall engaging flow from beginning to end! The powerful vocals can be noted especially in the equally great "King of the Valley" and "Wild Eyes Skies". The album is full of eerie ambient ballads such as the "Unquiet Tears" without missing out on heavier songs lead by powerful male vocal such as the "Ghost Moon Orchestra" and songs guided by acoustic guitars such as the "Working Man". The mood is set by rather dark melodies and lyrics which are describing a scary and eerie environment around a campsite. Overall, it is a very good example of English and Celtic folk/ prog that can be appreciated by both prog fans and first timers in this particular music field!
