CELELALTE CUVINTE II

There's more of a rock orientation to Celelalte Cuvinte's second album than there was to their debut. The array of acoustic instruments that gave a folky feel to some of the tracks on their first CD are not so much in evidence and the band is expanded to include a keyboard player this time around with the overall sound consequently becoming somewhat denser and hinting more towards symphonic rather than folk. The playing is as punchy and energetic as on their first outing, Marcel Breazu and Leontin Iovan remain a formidable rhythm section. Well worth investigating.
