There was some big talk about the then new AOR outfit Creye back in 2018 when they released their debut self-titled album. Wherever I looked fans in that genre were going bananas over the Swedes and it wasn't exactly hard to become highly interested in the band. For me personally, the hype din't really keep that promise. The album was good and well-produced but unfortunately it sounded like most of the contemporary Scandinavian (mostly Swedish, actually) AOR bands and even though I enjoyed listening, the music didn't really linger. A step up was the follow-up II (2021) but that album suffered from the same thing. Much too my surprise, Creye released a live video from a studio and I had a hard time believing this was the same band that had released those records.
