O’s Notes: No-Man is a British progressive rock duo composed of Tim Bowness and Steve Wilson. There are rock operas, weird explosive passages and attempts to get away from reality. Hushed vocals, electronics, guitars and violins make up the landscape. “Truenorth” sounds like a scary movie soundtrack but the majority of these tunes are futuristic rock. My teenage kids found it to be interesting but it calls for a select audience. The DVDa disc has excellent sonics.
