Time in fact had passed by since their first release back in 1977. Those dark, ominous and hopeless atmospheres have cleared out and gave birth 8 years later to this version of Univers Zero where they can actually take time to get down and boogie as no one but King Crimson can do that without losing sight of the whole picture and in step.

Anyway, of course they do boggie for 20 seconds, but that is just an example of how this ensemble has evoluted since its foundation. 1313 (1977) nor Heresie (1979), had space for this kind of bright light,s yet Daniel Denis who is the mastermind behind this conceptual Chamber Rock in Opposition ensemble has always shown a knack for the visions found in the threshold between beauty and the macabre, which is like his personal fascination and music composer signature.

So, as you may have already guessed, this Univers Zero album is one of its ever changing transfigurations as far as music composition goes, but still Univers Zero at heart, even though we are talking about the 80s where most of the 70s bands found their nemesis in new technologies and their respective markets and crashed down horribly, Univers Zero found muscle in those technologies and they never payed that much attention to fashionable markets, therefore they glided through, without, as told, losing a drop of inspiration and renewing what had to be renewed and keeping their artistry intact.

Easy! A RiO & Prog masterpiece!
