content: With punk and new wave firmly in control in 1979, so called "progressive rock" was well out of vogue and excruciatingly unhip. In this climate, Renaissance was struggling for "relevance" and this album was its woefully misguided attempt and reclaiming it.Gone were the grand orchestral arrangements that had marked previous albums and it its place were a group of songs drowned in an overproduced synthesizer mess. What was worse was that few if any of the songs even hinted and being memorable. It was not just the way they were presented it was the content of the songs themselves. This was the album that pretty much put the band to rest. After several previous unfocused efforts, their already dwindling fan base all but dried up. A sad whimpering end to a once compelling band.
