WESTERN CULTURE

The group with possibly the highest average IQ's playing together, created in this album an authentic manifesto of what it means to take the most learned and complex music to the fields of Rock, marking a before and after in the conception of the term Avant-Prog and having to this day the cult deserved for it.

At times chaotic and Dadaist, "Western Culture" was precisely that: to make it clear that they could have fun and have a good time together, taking the rules of music conservatories to the extreme, creating songs that hide behind their intricate elements precious passages of the purest beauty, for those of us who like RIO as much as contemporary classical music. It's hard to say if it's his best work, but easy to say it's one of his perfect works and touchstone of the genre. Huge job!
