DALLA VITA AUTENTICA

Andrea Orlando drummer of La Coscienza di Zeno and aswell member of Malombra, or colaborations with Finisterre manage to release his first solo album in 2017 named very simple but very effective Dalla vita autentica. Well, absolutely excellent album, one of the most intresting prog rock albums from italian school I've heared in last years. Smooth and elegant music. For example Cadi con me simply kills, marvelous female voice and all instrumental arrangements, the rest are also top pieces. Very strong musicianship all over, the whole album smells of golden age of prog '70s but with a modern twist in production. Another pieces worth mentioned are Oltre domani, the guitar work is great, remind me of some Camel best moments or Cinque Giorni D'Autunno. The vocals are provided by La Maschera di Cera voice - Alessandro Corvaglia on some pieces, there are instrumental pieces aswell. So, all in all very strong release, at least for me, it sounding fresh and without any boring moment, musicians play for pleasure and is shown in every tune. 4 stars for sure. Nice art work
