2 stars 1. Jusqu'Où Allont-Ils with the prog intro, that's good, more ambient electro, just to wait for the father's voice; the long, viscous, mantranic piece with a metallic riff, but yes how far will these musicians go? The crescendo becomes redundant and could have exploited a progressive madness, it reminds me of Peter GABRIEL's titles at the end repetitive 2. Cueillir Les Fruits Du Sérail with a crystalline air that seems to come out of the street lamp; a typical phrasing on the bass and the mysterious keyboard, then the choirs then the music that flows slowly and surely in ambient mode on Hassan's solo; 2 long titles and I'm missing something to really take off, yes the duration does not mean progression on all floors 3. Adrenaline on the folk violin of the Breton lands, with a text always hot potatoes; an evening bourrée to escape together since the music remains at the port; I sign for Gilles' violin 4. Farces Et Attrapes takes you to the funfair to the tune of Richard GOTAINER in fact, an interlude with an old-fashioned sauce to laugh at everything and scratch your back 5. Culinaire Lingus heavy riff, yes/no vocoder reminiscent of the one used by MMEB, yes I like to think about the links; the text is beautiful, but a bit scattered, and can't get me hooked; and if it was my first ANGEL what would it have been? Caroline intervenes trying to stir up the sauce, will the mayonnaise take? On the soaked fans, the answer is cruel, real? 6. Les Odeurs De Cousine with an illuminated synth intro, ambient drifting on a velvety atmosphere with expressive text, well it doesn't change on that side; for the rest it's again a bit simple after with a long unfolding cruelly lacking progressive sound, here it's repetitive and metronomic; and my question why not shorter? 7. Intérieur Nuit basic piano, the vocoder 'again' and Tristan who speaks; the most his voice but why didn't he take the bar before? The piece that flows naturally, mysterious, dark, intimate; no downside, just excellent as what

8. Univers And Nirvana bursts in, tenacious riff, orientalized voice, it's good it's Hassan who plays it like JONASZ; a punchy title, punching-ball which is worth it for this fat sound, this raw rock variation with its sensitive touch; another sound however 9. Gargantua and the return of Christian narrated like in the good old days of 'Sève qui Peut'; title in the angelic vein that would have deserved a cover on stage in my opinion, just to say that there was also some good in modern albums; the keyboard à la Francis, is not a nephew... who wants, intoxicated guitar solo and intoxicating finale with a hell of a choir 10. On Sexe in electro and the now assumed deviance of the storyteller, on sexe, uh we know it! The piece that pulls out a riff and pulls out the 'wife', but why did Christian have it incorporated? It's not ANGE anymore. In short for the ultra fans, we will have at least some energy or a bare apple in concert; for the others we still have this long unfolding that could have ended faster, what yes I say it; and Gilles having a blast with his Jew's harp 11. Cadavres Exquis on cello and duo vocals, a guitar that accompanies, the crescendo that is already taking place, Tristan in the background, too much still; piece for Hassan's solo that holds the atmosphere and never ends; the intoxicating choirs are only an epiphenomenon in front and the fade is still a bit pushed that we would forget the song of the bird 12. Autour D'Un Cadavre Exquis* as a bonus with heavy stuff, Thommy, Claude, Dan Ar Braz, Norbert, Serge, Paul, Jean-Pascal and Jan providing the progressive guitar ramblings; a nice snub for me who no longer saw any prog in it, in short.
