PRÉSAGES

Nemo is still a young band and the year is 2003. And all around this album - Présages - the second one for the band - you can feel the potential of that band. Of course, this potential is yet to be revealed, but the provocation to the big bands has been sent from here (and maybe from the first album named - Les Nouveaux Mondes). But here we can find step forward made by Nemo. I strengthen my position that every next album of Nemo is stronger than the previous one. I'm not sure where they can measure up. Probably among the best progressive rock bands at the time and why not among the greatest of all time...

But that's enough for commonly opinions by me. Especially for Présages I want to say, if you hear this album first you can find it as perfect as everything else, but it contains some flaws. I can't rank it like the later efforts by the band. Some repetitions, some amateur-sounding moments, some weak vocal passages, some simple ideas make this album good and a quarter!
