In the Prog Archives, this is the only album from this millennium to crack the top 45 on the all time list. The lovable grognards over there can't seem to get enough of Wobbler, and neither can I. Leterren

I like "Beyond the Seventh Wave" pretty much - but it's follow-up album "The World is Flat" is even better, in my opinion. There's not a single song I need to skip, the tracks are balanced very well musically, and even the longer tracks are largely free of unnecessary twiddly bits. Basically, the music is typical Dutch symphonic rock à la "Kayak" with a wonderfully melodic e-guitar and lots of vintage keyboard sounds like hammond organ, mellotron, and Yamaha CP-style e-piano, but with some nice extras, brought in by the violin, flute, and french horn used in some of the arrangements. Since the band is not inclined to disclose its more contemporary prog influences, I'll make a guess: "Big Big Train"? Well, sometimes I'm reminded of this first-class band while listening to this album... Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)
