3 stars Viva Belice is a nice initial effort by veteran drummer Daddy Antogna and his latest project, the cooperation with the band Los de Helio.

As Antogna is bound to a wheelchair following a bad accident almost 30 years ago, his input will never be what it was when he was at the top of his game musically, but with an additional drummer and a specially adopted drumkit for Antogna he's able to provide his expert additions to the sound of the band musically and compositionally, even if the former is in a limited capacity.

And while the end result isn't breathtaking this time around, those with a soft spot for instrumental psychedelic rock with a foundation in the 70's harder rocking parts of this universe should find quite a lot to their liking here. Dissonant art rock tendencies, fusion-tinged touches and a distinct Indo/Raga spice added for final number Veronica D. adds variation to the proceedings, but never to the extent of taking these songs out of a psychedelic universe.
