3 stars The second album from Eskaton continues in the same vein as the debut album.

For those who loves Magma, Eskaton is another band they should engross themselves in. On this album, place themselves as a middle of the road Zeuhl band. The music is driven by female vocals, some very pulsating Hammond organ and other tangents. The bass and the drums is also cementing a jazzy, light sound. Light but also full of interesting details. There is not much darkness on this album. Still, this album is as intimidating as any other Zeuhl album.

The quality of the songs are good throughout the album. Good, but nothing more than that. The lack of stronger originality is a problem. That and the lack of some really killer tracks that gives this album an identity. Besides of these gripes, this is an enjoyable Zeuhl album.
