Well, it's 2010, so that must mean time for another Arjen Lucassen release, right? I mean, this guy has been cranking out the music lately. With that, there has to be a bit of burn out and fatigue, right?
I wouldn't be so sure about that.
Don't get me wrong, Arjen's take on prog isn't for everyone. You have to accept a certain amount of cheese and camp. His latest release with side project Star One, Victims of the Modern Age is no different. But it is the willful embracing of camp, coupled with Arjen's unmistakable sound and songwriting prowess that makes it such a delicious trip to take.
