Negative Positive
Title: excellent
Review: This got some pretty lukewarm reviews, and when I first heard Sill Life, I was not too jilted in either direction myself. Frankly, I got this about five years ago when I was collecting anything on classic period Vertigo.But I just took this out--at a loss for what else to play--and find this highly enjoyable.Still Life are one of those progressive bands that basically stick to rock. There is not a lot of "out" experimenting or anything strikingly inventive on this albumBut the band insert long keyboard jams into what could be merely heavy rock songs, and dammed if it doesn't charmingly work. Part of this is the singer: he has a pretty soulful voice, deep and heavy, and when the organ work gets a little generic--you know those prog bands that can play but just don't take it anywhere interesting-his singing comes back in and carries you homeNot the best, but pretty good
