S. F. Sorrow is a brilliant album. The album is a rock opera about the life of a character named S. F. Sorrow. The songs are are frenetic and roll from one right into another. It is varied a mix of pop rock and heavy rock. For songs of short duration, they are quite detailed and intricate. Many of the songs are reminiscent of early psychedelic albums like Sgt. Peppers, but other songs really breaks ground deep into progressive rock territory.
I had never even heard of this album before embarking on this 1001 Albums challenge. However, it has now become one of my favorite albums of all time. It's disappointing that this album isn't more well-known. Not only is it worth listening to, I think it's also essential for anyone who takes their rock music collection seriously.
All of the songs are worth listening to and I'm hesitant to make a list of stand out songs, so I won't.
★★★★★★★★★★
