Our Take

Steve Hackett takes us on a mesmerising journey through time and space with his latest album, "Spectral Mornings." The guitar virtuoso effortlessly blends prog-rock with classical influences, creating a sonic landscape that is both epic and intimate.

From the moment the opening track "Every Day" kicks in, you can tell that Hackett means business. His intricate guitar work dances around haunting melodies, while the rest of the band keeps things tight and groovy. It's like Pink Floyd meets Yes meets a mad scientist who has unlocked the secrets of the universe.

Songs like "The Virgin and the Gypsy" and "Tigermoth" showcase Hackett's ability to craft intricate compositions that take the listener on a rollercoaster of emotions. One minute you're floating in space, the next you're being chased by a pack of wild tigers - it's a wild ride, to say the least.

But it's not all high-intensity thrills and spills. Tracks like "Spectral Mornings" and "Clocks - The Angel of Mons" provide moments of quiet contemplation, allowing the listener to catch their breath before diving back into the sonic maelstrom.

Overall, "Spectral Mornings" is a triumph for Steve Hackett. It's a masterclass in guitar wizardry, composition, and pure musicality. So, put on your headphones, turn up the volume, and prepare to be taken on a journey unlike any other. You won't be disappointed.
