So it sounds like Starrillionvirat's first album?

[Warning: obscure prog references ahead]

Heh-heh, I've got a copy of the first Fireballet album.

The album is certainly good, but it's soooo incredibly derivative.

"How derivative is it?"

It's like Starcastle, Marillion and Triumvirat combined.

I mean, imagine a drinking game; put on the first Fireballet album
with a bunch of prog fans in the room.  Someone shouts out whenever
they hear a direct musical reference to a specific classic prog song,
and everybody has to take a swig...
