The live albums are surprisingly good, though.     What's wrong with their other albums?   They're the most boring kind of Zeuhl/RIO/chamber-rock I've heard so hard.

I'm not even sure whether to class it as Chamber Prog or not... it has Chamber Prog elements but it's unique in its own way as well.

Plus one part of it is really quite dark.

Ah, that's cool then.  I was hoping that was the case.  I didn't want to think Daniel Denis had run out of ideas and just re-recorded his old tunes.

Didn't manage to make 1,000 posts by the end of the year.  Oh well, that was another one of my resolutions: to stop procrastinating.

It's such a sonically wonderful album and there's a lot of depth in there.  It'll need at two or three listens to catch everything.

Enjoy, Luke!

You also need Pocket Orchestra.  Mmm.

Oh and Volapuk's Where is Tamashii? (2003) is wonderful too. I would choose 2005's Knebnagäuje by Pocket Orchestra but that's made up of their recorded material from the 1990s, I believe.
