Memories Of Machines are vocalist / songwriter Tim BownessFind albums by this artist and guitarist / keyboardist / songwriter Giancarlo ErraFind albums by this artist and the cast on the album list Robert FrippFind albums by this artist, Peter HammillFind albums by this artist and Steven WilsonFind albums by this artist (to mention just a few) as contributors. But famous names aside, the album is a splendid example of contemporary song-weaving, with contemplative serene melodies, intelligent lyrics and great atmospheric arrangements. Definitely not easy listening, the album seems somewhat estranging at first, but then becomes strangely attractive, luring the listener into repetitive runs. Definitely worth discovering!
