A whimsical journey through the mystical world of Clive Nolan's mind, "Song of the Wildlands" transports listeners to a realm where prog meets folk meets a touch of magic. Nolan, known for his work with bands like Pendragon and Arena, showcases his musical prowess with an album that is as enchanting as it is adventurous.
From the opening track, "Into the Wildlands," Nolan sets the tone for the album with soaring melodies and intricate arrangements that paint a vivid picture of the untamed wilderness. Each song feels like a chapter in a fantastical tale, with lyrics that speak of mythical creatures and epic quests.
The instrumentation on this album is nothing short of fantastic, with Nolan's virtuoso piano playing taking center stage. The lush orchestration and intricate guitar work add layers of depth to each track, creating a rich tapestry of sound that is both captivating and immersive.
Standout tracks like "The Lonely Forest" and "Lost in the Woods" showcase Nolan's ability to craft melodies that stick in your head long after the music has stopped. The album builds to a thrilling climax with the epic title track, a sprawling epic that clocks in at over 15 minutes and takes listeners on a musical journey through the wildlands.
Overall, "Song of the Wildlands" is a charming and delightful album that will appeal to fans of progressive rock and folk music alike. Clive Nolan has once again proven himself to be a master of his craft, and this album is a testament to his skill and creativity.
