I haven't seen your feedback on La Seconda Eclisse... whatya think.
Also got a question for you... you can answer it here.. or PM me your thoughts. Just what IS 'Italian prog' to you.. what makes it Italian prog.. and seperate from other subs here. Take your time with that if you wish. Something to chew on |

More of the heavy stuff. Quite a lot of moody, dark, repetitive bass and guitar parts. Post-rockish at times, in Rush area the next minute. It's definitely NOT RPI, or symphonic according to me. |

Well, Dracula is not my favourite PFM's album, but if you like it try this other one:
RANESTRANE - Nosferatu il vampiro Here you can find some samples: http://www.nosferatuilvampiro.it/ascolta.htm http://www.myspace.com/ranestrane By the way, you've picked up many good albums...

I'd say they give me a lot of RPI vibes from the keys and with that hint of melodrama, but the themes and motifs feels more "mainstream" symphonic. I like the heavy bridges a lot. Nice blend.

^ exactly what I thought
 It probably shouldn't be the case, but an Italian singer may have swayed me enough into the ISP direction (still haven't listened to the ones with Taglapietra from Le ORme)

I know, and I bet that's a sensitive spot for the whole sub. "It's nothing but symphonic with an Italian singer..." |

oh yea buddy; that's quite the can of worms ya got there!
BUT, see exhibit A: Osanna
exhibit B: the bands that are symphonic but jazzy yet don't fit anywhere in between and still have the RPI scene stamped all over their sound (no need to go into it hahaha, it's not fightin' time yet)...and the jazzy bands that are too symphonic, etc.

Forgot to mention this earlier, here's something that's worked it's way into my faves The track availabe for streaming, "Padre" is great but not the best on the album...if you like it you will like the album, and if not, you still may haha.
