JOURNEY

This one deserves the attention of every prog rock lovers, from every ages and styles. "Journey" is giant and represents what the "king of hellfire" has the best to offer. If "The Crazy world" represented a very original debut in a strange, fantastic and "theatrical" universe, this one reaches you into a deep psychedelic and "evil" world made of frightening, enigmatic made of remarkable musical moments. "Times Captive" with its oppressive, dark theme directly throws you into a spectral, bizarre adventure. Vintage synth parts and repetitive "electronic" drum sounds prevail. The instrumental "Triangles" has a strange medieval "dark" tone, always based on electronic structures. "Gypsy" is a mysterious exotic tune, illustrating "black magic" or something of this kind. The voice of Mr Brown is always as various, theatric, groovy and dramatic. "Spirit of Joy" & "Come alive" are two freak'n roll compositions. "Conception" is a gloomy, fantastic tune, nice feel! An all time classic album!
