4 stars Hawkwind... Monster Magnet with the psychedelic side getting closer; Quantum Fantay... Ozric Tentacles we burn a little more.. Well there are voices, flute but not the one that makes time pass, the one that fills! There is especially energetic groovy movement, very electro synths and this very psychedelic atmospheric tendency... Enough to go far when listening.. 'celestial' divine electro to get into rhythm 'spacekeeper' vibrating with its jaw harp on OSC, more prog, more oriental, the percussive pads driving in a frenetic dance, magnificent instrumental 'numenia' sung and jazzy heavy trance sound, you have to know how to dive into it without drugs!! The final galloping hallucinatory guitar 'utopian' electro hovering between the beginnings of Hawkwind and the latest works of Quantum with an Ultra bass that dusts off the speakers, in stereo or in 5 points. (It's better in 5 points for the sound that goes above the head..)

'breathing' almost like the watch.. with this wild riff, but the voice blocks me too mantran 'legion' with the vocal perfectly integrated in this title oh so trans-hallucinogenic on the side of the Maghreb, the mantra air follows the air of the music and invites to a final torrid dance with the bouzouki 'sand' soaring like Pink Floyd, oh like Camel, in short excellent with this enjoyable guitar solo, and it's not to say but the soaring 'meddle' side of the 60s, the Wallian riff of the 80s makes you regress very well, the finale leads to the trance on a heavy air that feels good before the S-F sound of the time 'the Citadel' hypnotic air with the reverberant, plaintive acoustic guitar, opening the ears to a fabulous world where hatred no longer exists.. Yes I have the right to dream for a while... music is not for that! Latency halfway through this piece which is searching for itself and it gradually evolves on an ambient post rock slope favoring lamentation with these imposing screaming choirs... the solemn latent piano outro... Phew, a nice surprise from these Greeks at the beginning of this year!
