NP - Latte E Miele - Passio Secundum Mattheum


The only one I have by them. What others by them are worth having?

I'd suggest you decide for yourself. The band's whole discography is available on YouTube so you can try before you buy. ;)

I personally find Papillon incredibly tedious. Honestly, it sounds to me like generic ass Ren & Stimpy production music interwoven with extremely corny ELP stylized moments so cookie-cutter that one might perceive them as a borderline parody. And it just drags on and on and on. But, you know. YMMV

Le Orme did the ELPsploitation shtick much more gracefully on Collage.

I'd have to agree with Marek regarding Papillion based on the last time I heard it, and I liked the 3rd album even less.

Their more recent work is rated higher than the old stuff. It's been years since I've heard 2009's Marco Polo, but at the time I thought it was pretty good. That's about all I can offer...I'm not much of a Latte Miele guy beyond that first album.
