With Carpenter’s new album capturing the spirit of life’s journey — from the thrill of new beginnings to the challenges of tough choices and the peace found at the end - he opens his new recording on the free flowing Road Trip and the upbeat, peppy even Crossroads and then we get both the emboldened AOR of All Roads Lead to Now and the synth-hued, gentle pop-rock of Darkened Way.

Along next is the atmospheric Life on the Road which is itself backed by the melodious, guitar-hued The High Road, the impassioned The Road to War, the new set rounding out on a forlorn yearn within The End of the Road, coming to a close on the veritably shimmering prog-AOR of the bonus track Elysium.
