Kaj?s final words:If you?re a fan of song oriented and keyboard based progrock,then Oliver Wakeman?s latest effort is the perfect choice for you.
Oliver doesn?t walk in his father?s footsteps musicwise,well they?re both into progressive music but Oliver doesn?t compose with the same style and instead focuses on more rock oriented songs on "Mother?s Ruin".
Oliver loves to put layers of keyboards on these songs and I can?t say no to the mighty "In the movies" which is my personal fave,I?m no fan of Kinnaird?s voice and believes this album could be a lot better with a more suitable singer.
Still, it?s a solid piece of work!

The name City and Colour comes from his own name: The city Dallas and The Color Green. His reasoning for the name was that he felt uneasy "putting the album out under the name Dallas Green."
