As all IQ fans ought to know, The Lens was the predecessor to IQ. Today The Lens is a (very) occasional project under the command and control of IQ guitarist/producer Mike Holmes. Regeneration contains all new instrumental material, with Holmes assisted by IQ drummer Paul Cook, original The Lens drummer Niall Hayden, and sax player Tony Wright (who appeared on IQ’s Subterranea and The Seventh House). In addition to the familiar IQ style, there is some wonderful Camel-like stuff, some Pink Floyd, and ‘chilled-out progressive trance’ à la Ash Ra or mellow Ozric Tentacles. Hell, there’s even symphonic techno. It’s just about a perfect instrumental album.
