Album Notes & Community Reviews

Operating well outside the mainstream, this Italian ensemble delivered an intricate, fantasy-driven concept album steeped in the symphonic prog tradition. The sprawling compositions utilize vintage synthesizers, classical guitar, and complex, multi-part suites to evoke a deeply mythical atmosphere. It stands as a hidden gem of the European neo-progressive rock revival.
