To quote the press release:
Do you all find that over-written PR guff is actively off-putting? At least find some more synonyms for "acclaimed"...A new studio album from the legendary band The Syn [...]
a rich and extensive history in music [...] acclaimed [...] Other acclaimed musicians [...] exceptional job [...] joined by renowned [...] already being anticipated as a master work. [...] the illustrious [...] described it as “a beautiful album, the best prog album of the last decade.” [...] critically acclaimed

Yes. Very much so.
I listened to the camples on amazon.com. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...s=music&sr=1-3
Seems kind of "meh" on the first listen, but then they're just short extracts. The sticking point for me is that I don't really rate Nardelli too highly as a singer. (On the other hand, I LOVE Moon Safari.) I'll wait until there's been more feedback before I take the plunge.
Henry, do you mean The SYNonyms? I'm going to send you a copy of course, I wonder what you will make of Trustworks.
You may not rate me but this album is worth buying for the Moon Safari harmonies that flow through the cd from start to finish, they are brilliant.
That's kind of you, Steve. I will listen with interest. I've enjoyed listening to Syn albums considerably more than I've enjoyed reading the overblown PR guff about Syn albums.

Yes, absolutely.
Music isn't about chops, or even about talent - it's about sound and the way that sound communicates to people. Mike Keneally
You are welcome Henry, you have played a significant part in 21st Century Syn and I will always be grateful to you for that despite the odd conflict along the way. I have to agree with you on overblown PR guff to some extent, I wonder if people even take much notice of it when buying albums. You get what you hear not what you read.
I am informed that it is now available on itunes, but not actually available for download until its release date on March 25th! https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/tr...s/id1078345047

Any plans for a vinyl release ?
Yes, not sure when though.
Pre-Order at Reingold Records for signed copy (Jonas and Steve) - I just ordered mine!
Jonas post on FB:::
"Hey everybody. I´ve spent a great deal of time 2015 to produce and mix this great disc from the Syn "Trustworks" in collaboration with Moon Safari. I´m very proud of the stuff we did here and I strongly recommend it to everybody. It has clear Moon Safari trademarks with Steve Nardellis 60ies vibe. Pre Order it here and get a signed copy from yours truly and Steve Nardelli"
