4 stars Like a windy day in the autumn......

This album have been reviewed here in in PA by far more intelligent people than myself so I will be brief.

This band from Italy made complex progressive rock full of contrasts. You will find elements of early Rush, Deep Purple and Uriah Heep together with the likes of Gentle Giant, Genesis and the Italian giants like Le Orme, PFM and Banco. Most of all; this album reminds me about a cold windy autumn day where the trees are being thrown around by the wind....... with some eerie silence between the gusts. This album a lot of pretty epic and calm pastorial parts inbetween some hard rock parts too. It is the pastorial parts I will remember most fondly. They are almost like church music. There are some really stunning music on this album. The vocals are good. The tangents parts are excellent. The music is so full of contrasts that it is easy to get into unless you give it time. Which I have done. I dismissed it out of hand when I listened to it for the first time though. The very heavy pieces here put me off. But they are an integral part of this album.

This album is almost a proto type Italian Progressive Rock album in it's elegance, complexity and beauty. Quality wise, it is among the better albums. As usual, I miss the really killer track here. But this is still an excellent album and a worthy investment for all symphonic prog lovers.

4 stars
