Very interesting band.
The third album showed Jorm settling down in the symphonic prog territory, despite being defiantly released during the heyday of punk and new wave. The 18-minute epic "A room with a view" paved the way for a string of songs that were no less ambitious in form or stature. The lyrics of songs like "Skyline" and "Turn of the lake" were even sort of manifestos of this self-indulgence, and on the tail end of the album we get a piece of a World War II myth in "Fog on the shore". None of this helped this mastodont of an album to widespread success upon its release, but like all of Jorm's albums it remains a cult classic among prog rock fans.
