Its meticulously produced parent album, Seasons, created in collaboration with songwriter/producer Chris Pilgram, is a concept album chronicling the passage of the four seasons.Singing drummer Max Werner was influenced by his peer Phil Collins’ groundbreaking drum sounds on Peter Gabriel 3 and “In the Air Tonight.” Seasons, too, sets massive drums against often spare synthesizer backing and spotlights Werner’s strong vocals. The experimental yet accessible and melodic Seasons unfolds as a drum-driven symphony of early ’80s song-oriented progressive/art rock.This first-time-on-CD reissue of Seasons also includes a first-time-on-CD bonus track, “Stop and Start,” released exclusively in the Netherlands as a non-LP follow-up single to Seasons. “Stop and Start” furthered and concluded the Werner-Pilgram partnership.For fans of Kayak, Peter Gabriel, Phil Collins, Kate Bush, Steve Hackett, Gary Numan
