ALBUM REVIEW
Musea label is proud to present the remastered version of "The Bridge" (2008), a gem that surprises both through its modernity and unbridled inventiveness. Not completely the CATHEDRAL that used to be, nor a pale imitation of KING CRIMSON (Even though the influences of its present incarnation are sensible), nor one more revival testimony of Seventies Progressive rock, this opus opens up new horizons, with exciting enthusiasm and ardour. Needless to say that the whole range of vintage sounds is there, starting with Mellotron, acoustic guitar ala Steve HACKETT ("Kitharia Interludium"), some nice electric cavalcades on the six-stringed instrument, and a noteworthy huge bass sound. Although this is not a true concept album, the various tracks are linked by a peal that doesn't quite sound merrily. (Musea)
