Aelian Tree Under The Colours CD

Aelian performs a truly interesting music between Progressive rock, AOR and neo Progressive. It's first album "The Watcher" (1992) went more specifically in the first of those three directions, with a particular liking for the Seventies YES. Eight years later, "A Tree Under the Colours" showed a slightly different style. The opening track of the album "The Flame of Love" is a good example and proves immediately to be a potential hit. A little like the famous "Owner of a Lonely Heart" on "90125" (1983). The comparison is not made by chance. If Jon ANDERSON's line-up is always an obvious influence, the Eighties are here clearly privileged. In other words, those five Italian musicians play now powerful compositions with catchy chorus and perfectly fitting guitar riffs. Nevertheless, the sophistication is not forgotten and always serves the compositions. Trevor RABIN and ASIA also seem to have inspired this band, that tries to find the same perfection in their production and sound. As for.
