DUELLO MADRE - Duello Madre (1973)

2009-01-08 19:11:55 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
...spacey made for smokers in basements with low ceilings. Rockys Filj, Samadhi, and Officina Meccanica were much more flamboyant with symphonic or other elements. Area was Area. English bands like Nucleus had more humor and funk. Many fusion bands brought extra things to the table in the attempt to be outrageous or embrace the experimental...

...spacey calm.Time for reflection. "Scenery" is my least favourite although the song gets better as it plays out for me. "Free For All" opens with some mean bass lines before the drums and guitar join in.Vocals follow.The chorus is lighter.The vocals are really impressive during the heavy sections. "The Last Gasp" opens with fragile and...

...spacey synths and programming mixed with energetic guitars and heaviness. The Revolution Will Be Streaming opens with those spacey sounds i was talking about as keys are gently played.Drums, then a full sound a minute in.There is a nice rhythm to this one.A calm 4 minutes in to end it.Great start. This Shameless Moment opens with softly...

...spacey base, while the guitar,bass,drums and percussion create a variety of sounds and styles to make your trip both an exciting and relaxing one. I'd like to touch on some of my favourite tracks. Disc one opens with the only english on the recording as the band is introduced one by one as an uptempo melody is played.Nice."Die Hohepriesterin"...

ARTCANE - Odyssee (1977) [rated 4/5 by sinkadotentree]

2008-01-12 01:07:11 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
 
...spacey synths much like fellow French band CARPE DIEM.There is a darkness about this album that really draws me in The title track Odysse opens with spacey synths and pounding drums.I am addicted to the main melody,i may need an intervention, this is so good. Check out the guitar! This is way too short,but what a way to open the album. Le...

...spacey sounds,drums and spoken words.Processed vocals 2 minutes in and a heavy soundscape.Organ runs are great that follow.Dissonant flugel?(sounds like trumpet) out of nowhere after 3 minutes.Distorted guitar and organ are outstanding. Span 5 has this mid-paced,catchy rhythm.The bass stands out as the organ comes and goes.The harmonium cries...

...spacey sounds.Vocals are in english and suit this psychedelic music just fine. "Isle Of Kawi" is the longest track at 11 minutes.It opens with spacey sounds that are joined by a quickly strummed guitar.The guitar stops a minute in as spacey sounds dominate.Mellotron floods the soundscape 2 minutes in with more spaciness to follow.Themes are...

...spacey,jazzy and sophisticated than all their previous records.This is the peak of their most creative phase.I must say i was pleasantly surprised at how much i like this one.The silliness of the previous two albums is almost gone as they seem to focus more on the instrumental music. "Thoughts For Naught" features spoken male and female...

...spacey soundscapes. Just about all the things i liked about the debut are gone.Gone to are Schulze and Schnitzler. Interesting that AGITATION FREE drummer Christopher Franke replaced Klaus.Christopher played with AGITATION FREE well before they released their first album.The two bands often played together at the Zodiac Club,which is how...
