ETERNITY

1. Sentient intro.... Anathema changes sound, synth, calm to paraphrase a policy, this piano arpeggio, this plaintive guitar... that's their musical imprint; Daniel shows that he will be a great composer at the level of the sidereal beauty of art-rock because yes they get into it to the detriment of their first fans and future fans of Pink Floyd 2. Angelica continues, latency of the intro, ending and moving departure; when the sound is pure, there is no need for anything else; With this album they sweep away everything that every prog fan dreamed of listening to one day, absolute prog rock that makes you cry with emotion at every note; Vincent still has hints of growl in his voice given the vibrations, but it's so good! Prog is not just notes at 100 miles an hour, nor circumvolutional drawers, meanders that lose you, it is also the emotion released by Danny, Vincent and John, led by this captivating bass from Duncan ; beauty has a price, it is there; hilarious classical orchestral finale 3. The beloved brings the hint of their previous sound, more raw, animal; the rhythm is undoubtedly doom metal, the lava flows freely; a piece that listens like a wave relentlessly hitting the cliff 4. Eternity part I in 2 parts and the question what will be part 2? Dynamic intro launching the song with an Alcest in the making, an ambient post metal and its atmospheric doom rock sounds; a choir, a metronomic bass, a voice screaming and containing itself; on the edge of rock metal as it must be at the dawn of the new millennium; it accelerates, it wanders and the finale arrives, a minute of ambient electro sound to seek out; guitar reverb and 5. Eternity part II follows for the 2nd perfect contemplative title; bass, plaintive guitar, the perfect spleen to bathe in this new climate of Anathema; the melody like a cry of distress, the note which tears the atmosphere, the soaring search of the musical Altman is at this price; well the psychedelic Floydian side to its firmament, these outro voices, this sound of Tangerine Dream, yes this famous Tuesday evening show, ah these angelic voices which surround us, eternity, eternity and 6. Hope with Roy Harper who comes to launch the minimalist piece taken from Pink Floyd; the rise of the chorus and the playful plaintive air or how to use the melancholy depth of an air to recharge your batteries and glimpse the beautiful world; memory of the clip, very crazy, very blurry, good; synths that drip with the notes of Olympus and the repetitive air starts again like a drug; brief progressive

7. Suicide veil comes to tear us away from the atmosphere with a murky tune, dark wave rock stained with blood, a The Cure blacker than 'Faith'; monolithic bass stuck bringing a cry from nowhere, calm, solemn, a blot of keyboard, the sidereal beauty is there, right there between your ears; the guitar arpeggio in a shocking break yes, the rain... wetting your mind, this arpeggio seals the climatic sound of Anathema on a grandiloquent movement that some will snub to their fault 8. Radiance arrives, surfing on this climate where reverberations follow one another; majestic, pompous, dark folkloric, I don't know but wonderful yes; the vocal phrasing, the guitar which complains, perfection of sound, intense digression which is not afraid to forget the words to concentrate on a dark universe from which the light emerges even more frank, musical paradigm for those who have reached this level; when progressive sound no longer needs to be named 9. Far away returns to a more screaming melancholic rock, a desire to escape from the crazy world in which we live; cold rock which plays its notes before a second dreamlike rise, far away yes with this last devastating solo 10. Eternity part III as an interlude with this basic acoustic piece with Vincent as the only explosion; dark, delicate melody, filled with happiness and distress; a tormented, inhuman, fragile and desperate unplugged title, with the bass-guitar-piano rise as the only refuge 11. Cries on the wind with this ultra bass, yes like the solo of Michael from Van Halen, like that of Robert from Metallica; Vincent between phrasing and whispered, strong title, bestial again, reeks of their previous sounds; the drums prepare for the oriental explosion, the musical heartbreak, Daniel releases a solo worthy of one of Black Sabbath, the hard-prog-rock tangent is very fine; final archaic phrasing 12. Ascension closes the album with this radiant melancholy spleen melody, musical fire that does not want to go out and the keyboard that screams; the guitar between spleen and hope, sowing freshness before the solemn piano of the beginning returns to cover our mind cluttered in the face of so much beauty; immense avant-garde album.
