4 stars PULSAR's "Strands Of The Future" is one of the classic space prog rock albums of the 70's IMHO and remains to this day one of likely candidates for my desert island list ! Highlighted by the 22 Mins titled epic this album will blow your mind into another dimension. This album has everything I love... lots of FLOYDian keyboard spaceyness, great guitar soloing and accents and wonderful bass/drum interplay. Vocals are sung mostly in English with the exception of the epic track, which has a few words sung in native French. Vintage keyboards are used throughout featuring the Mellotron, moog and organ. Songs are very well written and give an overall feel of PINK FLOYD with a mix of ANGE and/or KING CRIMSON. My only criticism I have ever had about this album is the rather reduced sound quality which differs in contrast to their masterpiece "Halloween" which was exceptionally well recorded. However the album is still of course very listenable and remains a classic for sure and one of my favs.
