Italian project ACTIVE HEED is the creative vehicle of composer Umberto Pagnini. The project was born, developed and written in full by him. To help him realize his creation, he called upon a trio of musicians he knows to record his material, with additional vocals by up and coming Norwegian artist Marit Børresen and Mark Colton of Credo fame.

"Well crafted second project of the Italian band Active Heed, which recalls the sounds of the classic British progressive bands of some decades ago, adding some touches of energetic metal here and there. It's been a long time since I heard an album I've liked from the beginning to the end, so I recommend it warmly.

Excellent work of all the musicians involved, specially Umberto Pagnini who wrote the music and all lyrics and Cristiano Roversi, who is a well known name in the world of Italian progressive rock. Interesting and with a great outcome the choice of having Pellek, a metal voice, singing in ths progressive album. I'm sincerely curious to listen to this band's next album, to see which path will they take."
