LIVE FROM NEW YORK

KINETIC ELEMENT is a group made up of 5 members who must have listened a lot to the progressive dinosaurs such as YES, ELP and a little behind GENESIS but especially GENTLE GIANT; more recently it is especially DELUGE GRANDER, SPOCK'S BEARD or FLOWER KINGS that remind me of it. This live includes two tracks from their 2nd and 3rd CD, plus a new one. The titles are long, with drawers, a little messy because going quickly from rooster to donkey; the compositions are very beautiful but lack that little something that would bring them to the front of the major groups. A very good tribute group which composed beautiful music and which takes pleasure in playing it, a good group with a small defect in the voice too monotonous in my opinion to delight and keep the attendance of a sound debauchery. The 5 titles will take you to the sound of the 70's, updated yes, but without much creation because ultimately content to re-translate again and again the phonic sensations of a long time ago. A bit of a shame, some grandiose, symphonic passages mingling with others that are too linear and agreed.
