THE VIOLET HOUR – The Fire Sermon ( Sky-rocket Records)

1 min read


This is a re-issue from Sony’s initial recording back in 1991, TVH signedwith CBS and recorded the whole album in 3 weeks with Pete Brown (Sam Brown producer). Then they toured with Marillion all over Europe.Since 1992 band’s break up this release had been very hard to find.

The music includes melodic elements from 60s and 70s and also close to Marillion’s modern sound. Doris is the female singer of the band and maybe the member that puts the final signature in this album. Regardless of the progressive rock atmosphere, the melody and romance of this release make it familiar with melodic pop music. The most of the songs are mid tempo but every track has power inside the aesthetic meaning you get during the compositions.
