4 stars SO ONIRIC CREATES A NEW Ep AND I DOWNLOAD... SO I HAVE THE 2nd ONIRIC MAGIC!

This 2nd Ep titled 'Boulevard Cinéma' is dedicated to Cinema (see track list for explanations). Obviously, since I'm a normal person, this is not a pure Ep. Not because 'Boulevard Cinéma' is a sort of song that if had the guitars is a perfect Black Metal or Death Metal song (not for lyrics) but because this is (at the end) not a Prog Rock Ep. In substance 'Boulevard Cinéma' is a srt of Ep of another type of music. Not Classic Music or Krautrock, because not Psychedelic. Yes, Post Rock is good. But only for sound and strumentation. Sure, in a sense of strategy, 'Boulevard Cinéma' is a sort of Post World Music!!! (Eh, eh, eh...!!!) And I read in Oniric a pure fuckin' abstract band.

I read 'Abstract band'? Of course, the music is abstract but not banal. Because Oniric is a contemporary band and the music reflect the society. So 'abstract band' is referred to the mind and the soul of the contemporary society. In fact, except for 'Boulevard Cinéma' song, the music of 'Boulevard Cinéma' is without melodic rhythms. Typical of Post Rock is sound and the attitude. But the music is an electronic versionj of Mozart, Bach and Paganini. But without their thickness.

So Oniric is another great band that has created a great music for great connoisseurs!
