PHAEDRA 2005

Lots of devoted fans (hi Rico!) were absolutely devastated while they were listening to this album, trying to find out what was the relation with the great original. Actually, there isn't any, although... This is just something else.

This being said, the evolution of the band during the nineties and the naughties was such that this work is far from being poor. Once you have switched the original "Phaedra" button and listen to this one with a fresh and open mind, there is nothing wrong here actually.

Some upbeat electronic during the "remix" of the giant song, some excellent and ambient keys for "Mysterious". This one particularly sounds just splendid (as the original one to tell the truth).

As a whole, my opinion is that it is a good work but the major mistake was to recall one of their legendary albums from the seventies and therefore mislead their faithful fans. I just listen to it as if there no relation at all.

I rate this TD album with three stars. Bear in mind that it was probably a wrong marketing title? but the "new" track "Delphi" should please most of the TD fans from the middle seventies (for the first half) and other ones from the nineties (for the second half). At least I feel like this.
