3 stars 27 years after their 3rd album, the latest one comes out, and covers their 1st album which dates back 36 years! We're going to see the sound in what state it's in and dive back into neo prog far from the typical Italian RPI in fact. The album includes the first 6 tracks of the original album, the original group remains Alex Brunori for vocals, Andrea Monetta on percussion and Andrea Amici on keyboards. The sound goes directly into the neo-prog or even prog-rock ambiance; we still feel the influences of GENESIS for the first title in a significant way. For the rest, the atmosphere shifts to IQ and ARAGON, less to MARILLION from the 80s. The rhythm is energetic, with melodic prog corridors; the breaks occur gradually without a clear break. As you listen, the orchestration also returns to the work of PENDRAGON and especially PFM with a more symphonic side. The question why not have taken up the last title, my question of the day! Well, a good throwback which offered a good album when FISH left the MARILLION, but which is vintage today and in fact not evolving. For those who didn't know and remain in the 80's era.
