Flamborough Head wywodzi się z Fryzji, prowincji polozonej w polnocnej Holandii. Nazwa grupy pochodzi od nazwy czesci brytyjskiego wybrzeza, która to nadal grupie jej klawiszowiec Edo Spaninga. Muzyka Flamborough Head to melodyjny symfoniczny rock, w ktorej slychac echa takich grup jak Marillion, Pendragon, Arena, Camel itp. jednak z innym tłem i osobistym smaczkiem, które powoduja, ze ich muzyka jest jedyna w swoim rodzaju.

digi-packu z zachowanym oryginalnym frontem okladki.

Re-release in digi-pack of the 5th CD Dutch

neo-progressive band from 2005. Remastered 2016.
FLAMBOROUGH HEAD is rooted in Friesland.
This province in the northern part of The Netherlands. FLAMBOROUGH HEAD's
music is 24-carat symphonic rock, very melodic and has echoes from
MARILLION, PENDRAGON and ARENA but the different musical backgrounds and
personal taste from the members (from CAMEL and AOR to blues and rock)
gives their music music an orginal twist.

Their brand of melodic symphonic rock with a female vocalist reminds most
of Camel and Genesis, and this time around the band shows very sure of
itself, excellent thematic material to bring into play, and with all the
different melodic material, they do run the chance of loosing the edge to
the music. However, they cope with this by introducing some tense
interludes and elements, as well as some heavy guitar accents, and keep
the pace high as needs be. For me a strong 5 stars!
