Description/Reviews:

...the two have given life to a completely instrumental album that defies any specific labeling; with several references to the late 60s / early 70s Pink Floyd and 80s electronic music, this album finds its main sources of inspiration in the Scandinavian prog-rock and in the neo-psychedelic movement of the last two decades.

Description/Reviews: 

A positively delicious album brimming with the treasured hallmarks of the genre, the foursome... marry the sound and feel of past greats with a modern edge, and manage to produce an appealing symphonic blend that feels familiar, but not stale. All of the aspects we love are here: the twists and turns, the dynamic arrangements, the compelling melodies, and oh my, all those vintage keyboards… simply glorious. Purists will also take comfort in the fact that the words are sung in Italian, and truth be told, that’s as it should be. There is a natural passion to singing in one’s own native tongue that cannot be replicated when delivering (or in some cases, awkwardly stumbling over) translated lyrics.
