Our Take

Ah, Steve Rothery, the man, the myth, the legend. The Ghosts of Pripyat is his latest offering, encapsulating all the charm and finesse we've come to expect from the Marillion guitarist.

From the opening track, "Morpheus," Rothery takes us on a melodic journey through the haunting landscapes of Pripyat. The layered guitar work and emotive solos are a testament to his mastery of the instrument.

But it's not all doom and gloom in Pripyat. Tracks like "Old Man of the Sea" and "White Pass" inject a sense of optimism and hope into the album, showcasing Rothery's versatility as a musician.

The standout moment, however, comes in the form of the epic title track, "The Ghosts of Pripyat." Clocking in at over 18 minutes, this instrumental masterpiece builds and swells with a sense of urgency and emotion, taking the listener on a rollercoaster ride of sound and feeling.

Overall, The Ghosts of Pripyat is a triumph for Rothery, cementing his status as one of the finest guitarists in the industry. With this album, he proves that even in the darkest of places, beauty and artistry can flourish. A must-listen for any fan of prog rock or guitar wizardry.
