Review:

(Yuka & Chronoship) deliver a 1,2,3 punch with their (3rd) album {The 3rd Planetary Chronicles},a solid (5) star Prog masterpiece that delivers.The band continue to amaze with their music and they step up their game another notch with this newest album.(12) songs on this conceptual piece and not a dud in the bunch.***

Yuka's amazing virtosity on the piano continues along with her excellent use of the synths and organs,with her exceptional composing skills she once again creates the perfect feel and mood to match the concept.The playing on this album is top notch with killer keys throughout,a little more aggressive electric guitar along with some nice acoustic work and really great solid bass playing and the drummer,with his new Pearl drum kit,delivers great playing with really nice use of the cymbals as well.***

Great songs,great composition and just a thrilling musical prog ride.(Yuka & Chronoship) make a big statement with this album and really make a strong over sound with track (11)- {I Am Thee} - {The Awakening of Cloneroid} ,this song delivers everything prog music fans love and hits you just right with Yuka saying ok boys you wanna hear some (Prog)?, Well let me show you what I can do.The most talented and distinguished female artist in Prog today,(Yuka Funakoshi) and the boys(Chronoship) bring the Prog album of the year with the stunning (3rd Planetary Chronicles),Not to be missed.

(5) Amazing Stars!!!
