1998 , HOLLAND - EURO 14.50
Label: LABRAD'OR RECORDS
ALBUM REVIEW
LIKE WENDY are actually a one-man band, namely BERT HEINEN, a mighty talented artist. “The Storm Inside’ is his first album and yet sounds like his 10th. The craftsmanship displayed on it is simply stunning: the poignant, hauntingly beautiful melodies (think a somewhat more laid-back version of IQ), the lavish PENDRAGON-like symphonic arrangements, the ever-present energetic, throbbing ARENA-like passages and finally, the soulful, melancholic vocals so characteristic of Scandinavian bands - all this makes for some highly satisfying listening for anyone into melodic prog.
