L'HEPTADE

3.5 stars really. This albums follows on from the excellent Cinquieme Saison (SoabduCS). This one adds drums and a few other prog elements into the mix. The first 'side' of this album sounds similar to the first four tracks from SoabduCS. The second side of this album has less singing and less acoustic guitar and is more moody and quiet. This whole album is well done, but there is nothing that remotely compares with the transcendant 'Histoires sans Paroles' from the previous effort. If you really loved the whole previous album, I am guessing you will really love this. If (like me) you only loved HsP and liked the rest then you may only like this. It is definitely worth listening to in any case. Still wavering on the final rating.
