Now this is some homegrown neo-prog I could easily dig into! Very rich with substance and quality! I wish there was more like this online and more recently.
A crazy symphonic/progressive rock song.
The overall (vague) theme is different aspects of friendship represented by the colors of the rainbow.

This was super dope. Cool unexpected rhythmic choices from the drums. Keys were on point. The mix was a little amateur but that's totally ok. You've got a lot of instrumental talent on showcase here and getting good quality recordings can be challenging. A good recording requires a good studio and not everyone has that at their fingertips. Also, mixing/mastering isn't as organic a process as just picking up an instrument you can rock in the moment. Mixing is boring in comparison.
The lyrics were simple but well written. Some people like to write crazy rambling stanzas. Yours were straight to the point, curt. The accent threw me off a little bit, so while I read the lyrics I kind of tuned out eventually and let your voice become just another instrument. It's unfair, you're singing was great. I guess I'm not used to hearing a Polish accent. I don't want to go into detail about the accent though because I know how hard and embarrassing it can be to find your voice when you sing. Vocals take so much courage, I'm happy you just let it all out. Seeing as how you're Polish I'm guessing you choose to record in English for a reason? To be frank, I'd have been totally ok if this was all in Polish. I listen to so much metal, half the time I listen to music the vocals are totally a mystery to me. I'm a tone lover :p
GemeroftheWind's sax was on point. Super tasty wails :D
This is a good long listen. Was nice to hear something fresh today. Thanks Czy <3
EDIT: I'm listening to some of your other tracks. The mix quality is notably better on some of that stuff. I'm just going to assume this one being 20 minutes long is some kind of passionate one off :)
Thanks for the super detailed review! It's a pleasure to read. I can't do anything about my accent but a lot of people have told me my voice sounded better in English. In terms of mixing and mastering I tried hard to get a vintage lo-fi sorta vibe. It's a shame that it didn't work out.

English, please. EDIT: Thank you. It's prog.
