The second album from this band from Belgium.
The band was a sextet with a lineup of percussion, bass, violin, viola, bassoon, oboe, harmonium, organ, piano, guitars and some shouting vocals.
Their self-titled debut album created some attention and the band became a part of the original RIO bands movement.
Univers Zero is indeed a highly influential band.
Their music is not rock and not classic either. It is some kind of chamber music.
The chamber music is very dark on this album and slightly cinematic. It is also bordering to zeuhl and the first Magma albums.
This fifty-one minutes long album is divided into three pieces of music. The longest one is twenty-five minutes long.
For me.... Avant-garde music not being my biggest strength, this album is one long piece of music.
The music is really dark and really good too. I am starting to understand what this band is all about after the shock the debut album gave me.
This is indeed a good album and one I will revisit again sometimes later.
