Really interesting music bet by this Italian band leaded by female vocals and full of powerful and epic moments.

Perhaps the music is half way between hard rock and heavy metal, the tracks are totally enjoyable for "classic" prog fans because their solid rhythmical sections, awsome vocals and impressive guitar solos. The music is very atmospehrical because the constant references to african rhythms based on percussions. So, we are in front an album that sounds like many other bands of the heavy prog genre but with some elements (such as the constant interest in epic sections) that makes a big difference creating a singular sound.

Some of the highlights:

-Salentu E Africa: Nice piece with heavy riffs and proggy keyboards. Very powerful and raw.

-Pizzica Mascia: The more jazzy and african influenced track.

-Simu Pacci: The most quiet but proggy track of the album. Great epic moments.

-Scanzala: Another well done track full of jazzy and prog sections with some nice atmospherical moments.

-14 agosto 1480 (Otranto) I and II: Such a pair of songs full of epical moments and and astonishing grand finale...

4* to incite all of you to listen this adictive release...
