NECROMANCERS OF THE DRIFTING WEST

Third Ear band "eastern" & ethnic influences have gone in this little release entirely devoted to the dark age of medieval universe. The rhythmical arrangements are less omnipresent than previously, the basic structure is not really rock but the members success to operate an incredible creepy, atmospheric and acoustic atmosphere with chamber music instruments (with cello, oboe, violin parts...) Reissued recently this album prefigures the sound of Macbeth and the experimentations in pagan, occult medieval music. Not "Third Ear Band" best effort but an original side of their music after their outstanding progressive & "eastern" influenced album called "Alchemy"
