Pollen - self titled

4.5/5 actually

A canadian band singing in french sounding like rock progressivo italiano? Yes. What a fabulous symphonic album. Beautiful album art indeed. Pollen music offers symphonic electricity and light technical rock, adding acoustic folk and pastoral tendencies. The final solution is an almost full star album. They're playing real rock but seems they're gettin soft with their instrument. It's a great album to listen when you're not in the mood for something heavy but still want some high grade prog rock. The vocals reminds me of Eloy, but french lyrics. The first track (Vieux corps de vie d´ange) and the last (La femme ailée) are the lenghty tracks, and seems the band effort grows higher there, and they have the most memorable moments of the work. Well, it is not an innovative album, but pleasent, very very well done featuring plenty of sapid tips. Reccomended for fans of the R.P.I. genre. It shares similarities with artists such as Museo Rosenbach.
