Editorial Reviews
http://www.prog-nose.org/engels/albums_2004/cross_playgrounds.htm
On this album Cross has found the perfect balance between the vocal and instrumental pieces.

Product Description
Cross' music is best described as "timeless progressive rock" as they often are compared to old school prog bands such as Genesis, ELP, UK and Pink Floyd as well as contemporary acts like IQ, It Bites or Arena when reviewers try to describe this unique act.

Claude Bosschem at the Belgian prog site PROG-NOSE wrote: "Influences from the past like Genesis, Yes, King Crimson, etc are now reunited into a very own sound, neo-progressive symphonic rock". Duncan Glenday at SEA OF TRANQUILITY describes CROSS' sound as "rich symphonic music with structures and phrasings that recall both the seventies and the best of nineties-neo". Cross has the ability to incorporate beautiful melodies together with heavy riffing and symphonic structures in a natural way of their own.
