TERRA IN BOCCA

This album is their most progressive effort featuring two long compositions (both more than 20 minutes). The music is very alternating and delivers many captivating moments: heavy compelling keyboard play, subdued acoustic guitar and emotional vocals, mellow swelling Mellotron (especially the beautiful intermezzo halfway Part Two), virtuosic piano work in the vein of Keith Emerson (but more refined) and fiery, propulsive guitarplay. Despite the long running time of the two tracks, it sounds cohesive and pleasant. This is a very fine album that deserves to be discovered.
