Enneade Remembrance CD

As it sent it's demo to the Musea label in 2005, Enneade probably didn't know that it had borrowed the name of a famous compilation dedicated to Zeuhl music, released twenty years before by that same label. This young outfit from Lyon's first album is definitely in the quality Progressive heavy-metal vein, actually. "Remembrance"'s four long pieces range from 10 to 18 minutes. Rumbling bass, powerful drums, intense riffs: The fans of DREAM THEATER, who happened to discover Enneade during a memorable after-show, will be delighted ! But the band shouldn't be reduced to this sole influence, mostly pregnant on the beautiful opening suite "King of Silver": it's musicians like acoustic, peaceful and melodious moments, as well as rises in tension that evolve gradually to an anxious climax that evokes the current KING CRIMSON. The entwined guitar parts frequently remind of those heard in the track "The ConstruKction of Light", except the fact that the second axe is replaced by keyboards sounds.
