The sixth album from this French band.
The band was a quartet with a lineup of keyboards, guitars, bass, drums and French vocals.
I have been a long time admirer of French progressive rock. I am therefore in Nemo's target group.
And to be fair, the albums I have heard from them so far.... and reviewed for this blog..... has been very satisfactory.
Take a big chunk of Ange, add some progressive metal and some Gentle Giant and King Crimson. You will end up with something like this album.
The vocals are really really good here and it is obvious that I have to get and review the vocalist's solo album sometimes next year too.
The music is the most important here and it is pretty monumental despite of the lineup which is sparse on the paper, but still makes big sounding music on this album.
There is some prog metal here in the beginning which may scare of some. But most of this album is French symphonic prog anno these days and time. Modern sounding but still pretty true to the origins of this scene and sound.
The result is one hour and ten minutes of very good music and one album you should really check out. It comes recommended.
3.5 points
