ART ZOYD 3 [AKA: SYMPHONIE POUR LE JOUR OÙ BRÛLERONT LES CITÉS]

Along with Present and Univers Zero, Art Zoyd shows an acoustic RIO made of horror. The basic instrumentation is made of violins, cellos and metals but in the best moments we found an electric bass building some rock themes!

Lots of breaks are found: melodies come in, melodies come out, mosty playing erudi themes. A weak point of this album is that there is no percurssion most of the time; and the percurssion is one of the best elements to build an horror song - Univers zero, for example, have a great line of percurssion. The vocal is well used but it appears only in few moments.

I got to admit that the second side of the vinyl is better than the first - it's more agressive and more electronic instruments are found.

An album that worths!
