Our Take
Our Take
The Flower Kings have reigned supreme with their latest album, "By Royal Decree." This prog-rock masterpiece is a regal display of musical prowess, blending intricate melodies with epic storytelling. From the majestic opening track to the grand finale, every song is a journey through the kingdom of sound.
Lead singer Roald Dahl's vocals soar like a royal falcon, while guitarist Sir Henry the Eighth shreds like a knight in shining armour. The rhythms laid down by Sir William the Conqueror on drums and Sir Reginald the Funky on bass are as tight as the laces on a knight's boots.
"By Royal Decree" is a true feast for the ears, with each track serving up a unique blend of majestic harmonies and virtuosic musicianship. From the haunting ballad "The Court Jester's Lament" to the epic saga of "The Quest for the Golden Crown," every song is a testament to the Flower Kings' musical sovereignty.
So grab your sceptre and settle in for a royal listening experience with "By Royal Decree." This album is a crown jewel in the Flower Kings' discography and a must-listen for any fan of progressive rock. Bow down to the kings of flower power, for they have once again proven why they reign supreme in the realm of music. Verdict: 9.5/10 - A majestic masterpiece fit for a king's playlist.
