SEA OF TRANQUILLITY

Antares from Italy is a forgotten prog band from late '70's. Sea Of Tranquility is from 1979 and aswell their swan song, after some spins the album turned to be not something special, plastic keys over some anoying vocal parts. It is mainstream symphonic with couple almost intristing instrumental passages , including the highlight Apollo 11, who is very nice, but the rest is very unpleasent, at least for me. Most of the italian bands I've heared had something good in their music, very few had unpleasent moments, this Antares is the top of unpleasent italian bands I've ever heared. 2 stars maybe in places because of Appolo 11 2.5 . At least the cover art is great because the music not, no wonder they remains very unnown and unpopular even in Italy.
