For older fans Memories Compiled 1 will put a massive smile accross your face. This is the first studio album from Vidna Obmana and PBK since bad diagnosis in 1994. When you buy a Vidna Obmana and PBK album, you know exactly what you’re getting! Another great offering from Vidna Obmana and PBK.
Exhaust Dark Crown is so unique, as each one of the songs is. Momentary Stillness - For me, this is the best of the album. The Fall Of Romantic Simplicity motivates you to get up and do something to improve your life and the life of others. Insects To Harmony is gorgeous and different song. This song is like perfectly aged vintage bordeaux wine not a tequila shot. Within the first few notes of Closing it’s perfectly clear that Vidna Obmana and PBK is living this song. Only one song from Memories Compiled 1 named Isolation / Refuge really got me. Dazzling Array 1 is the album’s biggest hit, I think. Lost In The Swirling Distance has a fun tempo. Inside The Empty Mass is the most memorable and perfect. I was truly moved when I heard Dazzling Array 2. In Before Mutual Grace it becomes nowhere more obvious that Vidna Obmana and PBK has yet to define own style. Upon Steel Heaven is a fine track on any terms. Dazzling Array 3 is beautiful, yet underrated track. I love the melodic melody of Reflecting Deep Stars and to this day it makes me feel good. I like the agression and power of Into Gray Divides. Gathering In Frozen Beauty is a song that will not reduce you to tears but leave you thinking long after Memories Compiled 1 have ended.
