FRANCES THE MUTE

This album is...simply crazy! The music contained in this one here is pretty brilliant, surely meant to be very visual and supposed to take the listener somewhere else, and of course it is also very complex in its construction, so much that sometimes it's hard to listen to this work in one single take; as for the lyrics they're absolutely criptical and it's hard to understand the plot of the concept, anyway probably it's true that the sense of it is in the ear of those who listen to it. The songs are all amazing especially the opener "Cygnus...Vismund Cygnus" and the 32' min. epic "Cassandra Geminni". Defining their style is quite impossible, since they mix up a lot of influences: jazz, latin, prog, psich and others.....anyway the mix works out in a brilliant way. Personally I prefer "Frances The Mute" to "Deloused in the comatorium" by far, because this work is more homogenous than its predecessor, as far as we could use this term, when we refer to a TMV album.... It's gorgeous...the rating is 4.5 stars
