First of all, “From Two Balconies” has a wonderful cover artwork that was designed by the renowned Derek Riggs (Iron Maiden, Stratovarius, Gamma Ray etc.). Secondly, the album has a modern orientation and blends alternative, modern prog rock, pop-rock, rock, atmospheric, ambient & electronic music together. Three out of the ten tracks are instrumental, and one of them is the actually annoying “Confirmation Bias” – a track that can cause you a headache from the very first sec. Thankfully, the album has some nice atmospheric tracks like “The Mystical Connected Us”, “Beats in the Brain” (a remarkable instrumental) and “Pity” that are very gratifying. There might be a few tracks that do not have the same flavor as others, but that thing does not affect the album as a whole that much. The production is clear and lush. The album was produced by the band, mixed by Todd Mecaughey at Cambridge Sound Studios in Philadelphia and mastered by Andrea Pellegrini in Italy.
