Pure Reason Revolution, Amor Vincit Omnia

UK, 2009

PRR's second album has a lot of hype to live up to: their debut not only revived UK prog, but also brought them recognition from the likes of Steven Wilson and Rick Wakeman. Those expecting a direct follow-up to the Dark Third will be disappointed - the lush ambiance reminiscent of Pink Floyd has been replaced by a more electronic sound akin to NIN.
