Door de Brexit komen titels die uit de UK afkomstig zijn nog altijd
met vertraging binnen. Soms valt het mee en duurt het slechts 2-3
weken, maar het komt helaas ook voor dat we 4 weken of meer moeten
wachten. We doen ons best om alles zo goed en snel mogelijk te
regelen, maar het blijft lastig...

Omschrijving | ENNEADE is a progressive metal / progrock band
from Lyon formed in 1995. Three demos then the
"Remembrance" came out, containing a compendium of
what was best at the time, a fusion of bass, drums
and heavy riffs, all sprinkled with parsimonious
acoustics with dark intensity. The music could be
described as a compendium of 80‘s KING CRIMSON,
GENESIS and RIVERSIDE, with additional elements of
OPETH and ANATHEMA, in short complex progressive
metal mixed with original neo melodic prog.
The new album Withered Flowers And Cinnamon is
clearly a few steps further on the road. It starts
with "A Foul Taste of Freedom", heavy attack,
reverberating bass, phrasing vocals, acoustic
base, a sumptuous and intimate break; it‘s a bit
of the heavy side of RIVERSIDE with hard riffs as
well as a medieval break for a time before setting
off again on an invading, superb melodic rhythm.
Acoustic "Illumination" in intro starting on a
hellish rhythm, it‘s heavy with a touch of
SUBTERRANEAN MASQUERADE, the sound that shows the
importance of the work, the 11 years of waiting
have been put to good use; a little ANATHEMA and
RIVERSIDE for the guitar which oozes, which
languishes and it starts again, clean, it looks
like a very good English group with the fine voice
of Christian who does not suffer from an accent,
it‘s well done. "Tinkling Forks" continues on a
marimba, then the Chapman bass à la KING CRIMSON;
aside touching the Japanese and Genesis atmosphere
all of a sudden with a guitar that seems to come
from another world, stunning, simple but
effective.
"Grand Buffet" launches into a rhythmic fusion, a
sort of medieval, folkloric and Crimsonian tribal
dance; confusing short title which questions the
purpose of the music in its general sense. Closing
track "Autumn" is 12 minutes of pure happiness: we
regress on the Moog of yesteryear, a hovering side
of the late SCHULZE in the introduction also makes
a sign; the acoustics and the pads of Frédéric
make it almost a dark bucolic ballad, always this
divine mixture of zests of GENESIS and KING
CRIMSON; the guitars of Christophe and Georges-
Marc accentuate the mischievously melancholic
atmosphere. The Crimsonian break goes from dark to
rustic, challenges just like this jet of sax from
Olivier recalling the progressive wanderings of
the SUPERTRAMP, quickly assisted by the Genesis-
like keyboards, in short the musical fusion
brought to its paroxysm, between jovial depression
and crystalline notes.
ENNEADE an album with a compendium of progrock
with a wide variety of (melodic) metal
reminiscences, resulting in great sounds mixed
together in the progressive crucible and emerging
in a new musical alloy of the 2020s. You just want
to put it back on track, again and... again.
