3 stars Lei Seca's second album takes up the baton from their debut album. The music is again symphonic prog with a lot of influences. Too many influences, in my view. The bossa nova parts on this album makes me cringe. Lei Seca has even copied parts of that Welsh folk music song Led Zeppelin did with Sandy Denny on one of their albums.

Inbetween all the oddities on this album, you mostly get a mix of Pink Floyd, Eloy and Camel on this album. A nice mix if it is combined with strong melodies. But in this respect, Lei Seca fails. Krakatao is a drawn out epic and has no real good themes. I lost interest half way through it. It is a good epic, but nothing more. The same goes for the rest of the songs here. Good, but not great. The most baffling about this album is the album title. Art Rock ? Gimme a break ! They should had named it Krakatao or something else.
