4.0 excellentDimorphic | January 9th 18

This isn't anywhere near as bad as people are making it out to be. Total departure from the epic, soaring melodic stylings of the previous 2 albums, but an interesting album that, in all honesty, was executed pretty well in terms of what I assume they were going for. That saxophone in 'In the Mood' is done incredibly well, as are most of the intros/outros to songs. They just never "get going" as the prior albums did.rStrongest songs here are 'In the Mood' and 'Deep Inside Your Heart', with the latter being just as good as anything on the 2 classics.r

Strange and Beautiful lacks lot of the power, emotion and epicness of their first two, however, it
doesn't try. The best way to describe it would be solo Robert Plant meets Queensryche. They sound
like they were formed roughly 600 miles northwest (or the UK) and about seven years earlier. (They
were formed in 1979 after all), as there is something about it that is very... southern. It is a
diverse, a little inconsistent (in sound, not so much in quality), entertaining and interesting
ride. While it isn't nearly as good as their first two, it is still a great album.
