 Nineteentwelve
 New World Order
 Review by Gary Hill
This is a double CD set from Nineteentwelve. Well, technically it's from that prog outfit and Omenopus, but the first CD is strictly Nineteentwelve. For that reason, it makes sense to look at the two separately. That first disc is quite probably my favorite of Nineteentwelve's catalog. Every song works so well. It has both familiar and unique sounds. It's just a masterpiece. The thing is, pretty much all of that can be said about the second CD, too. The sounds of the two are very different, but both are stunning, rich and vibrant. I'd recommend this one to just about any prog fan who is open to newer forms of progressive rock.
