3 stars 1. Le Rêve Est À Rêver (2nd Service) rock entry, haunting tune, the voice is still there and the prog side flows towards the melodic above all and Thierry's bass is already wreaking havoc, let's continue 2. Psychosomagique Génie precisely on a melodic, electronic framework; the sound changes, an Angel passes, the new musicians had been well rehearsed on the Christian DECAMPS & Fils; rock is almost dead, protest rap puts the sounds of before in the closet, quickly a text to hang on, a Mellotron and a guitar solo by Hassan the new prodigy to hit us in the right direction 3. Eurekâ ... simple as or how to interlude with a synth from the almost new millennium; the voice in the distance, Troyes, Chaumont?; Christian, Tristan? In short, ideal to launch 4. Bilboquet on a rock à la CHEAP TRICK yes the title of 'Métal Hurlant' go check for the trouble; vocal to JONASZ what Hassan and I wasn't warned?, well that doesn't catch as much as before, what can you do it's like that; the title that stretches, tries to the oriental air from afar and to fall back on the toy 5. Elle Fait Ma Rides for an a capella vocal-piano, son and father; for a jazz-rock nursery rhyme of night bar 6. Eurekâ In Extenso or how to wake up and dream to the prog sound of Ange? The enjoyable heavy interlude with its heady organ, its meticulous strike, its air that recalls, that recalls, yes without words we can approach 'Quasimodo' eh I didn't say it 7. L'Eau Qui Dort for a humidified variant with a slowed tempo, on some cloying jazzy, on lyrics that try to catch on; it's soft, it's marshmallowy, it smells of SERRA's 'Grand Bleu' and the voice is always faithful for those who follow them; for the others it's a bit of disbelief to see who it is 8. Archimède for the second progressive title with the captivating keyboard, no longer that of the 70s of ANGE but that of the new millennium that shows up with the nephew; in short an ANGEL between two asses between two chairs

9. Coma Des Mortels for the jazzy-rock symphonic essay where a beautiful guitar solo floats, with a piano variation that can make you think of the watered-down SUPERTRAMP 10. Sometimes we wonder who this group is, here is the opportunity; what happened, a desire to find a new genre? Sometimes to stay on its musically promising niche 11. Ethnies arrives and does good; it's nervous, it's cheerful even if we won't reach the mythical phrasing of BERUS and their 'Salut à Toi'; the drum-keyboard variation with prog drops that reassure a little as well as the crazy finale 12. Patisonges Et Mentisseries and the bucolic interlude ballad 13. Mémoires De Jacob Delafon for the association of voices, yes, well there you go; ah yes the finale but almost a taste of shit no? 14. And Ghandi L'Hindou Dit Tout Doux for the good surprise with this oriental title soaring-dub-energetic that is drunk like a tea in the middle of the desert 15. La Serrure Ou La Clé for the song that can pierce the ass, yes 4mn to fau and to blood like hemorrhoids on crazy heavy prog rock à la ANGE; the title that gosh darn it but why didn't they cover it live, too good that!!! Well I listened to the text again to be sure not to do 'soustoi'. The enjoyable guitar solo, I didn't write it on purpose, but what a great, what a great hard-sputnik title that hits you in the...! 16. Jardin Secret for the prog intro that we no longer expected, well me yes since I stayed unlike many who had deserted the CD; yes 70mn we go to the end; intoxicating air that hypnotizes, that upsets with its orchestral part and its expressive explosion; a magnificent secret garden to share in secret with oneself 17. The Water Car for the finale, the outro, the jazzy piece that drips into your ears; well I still listen in case the recipe for the water car is not just an invention ... that falls through.
