Title: Hardiman's style matures
Review: While this won't become my favorite CD, it is assured a long and dust-free home in my collection. Like its predecessor, Solas, Anthem is an upbeat mix of driving rhythms, soft vocals, and synthetic instrumentals. It's a bit repetitious, but MUCH more varied than Solas. This is a clearly more mature composition, and the progress it illustrates give me great optimism for future collections from this gifted composer. I've heard Hardiman's style described as a mix of Enya and Enigma, but I don't know if that is fair. It's neither as serious as Enya, nor as moody as Enigma, but it's fun, lighthearted, and should have a wide appeal. Pop this CD in and go for a drive--you'll relish every minute.
