Kaledoscope (2006)
(Nasoni 049)
Stesso discorso per il secondo full lenght Kaleidoscope che apre con Good and Bad, leggermente più heavy dei suoi predecessori. Il riff richiama qualcosa dei led Zeppelin seconda maniera... Il pezzo è veramente apprezzabile...scivola presto in una ballad dove il basso, rigorosamente vintage, accompagna un solo di chitarra la cui ambientazione ricorda Achilles Last Stand dei led Zeppelin. Great Song. La canzone temina con una terza maggiore della chitarra che rimanda alla mente chiusure blues mai ovvie... I pezzi scorrono regalandoci ballate blues in chiaro sapore Leaf Hound, Jade Warrior, Skynyrd, Bachman Turner Overdrive and so on. Bhairavi Dhun è un inno strumentale all'India, classico del repertorio rock anni 70. (Mood ripreso, ad esempio, tra gli altri, anche dai più moderni OM in God is Good) Crossing the Stratosphere regala attimi di space-kraut per poi sfociare nella consueta ballad, mentre There and Back Again potrebbe essere suonata dai Deep Purple ed infine, il pezzo di chisura 'Reverberations' rimanda echi di Uriah Heep che suonano prog.
L'album ha un tocco più prog e personale, migliore del primo.

Same for the second full length that starts with a Good and Bad, slightly heavier than its predecessors. The riff recalls something like Led Zeppelin second manner... The piece is really appreciated ...soon slips into a ballad where the bass, strictly vintage, matches a guitar solo in the setting that reminds Achilles Last Stand of Led Zeppelin. Great Song, don't lose it.
The song ends with a major third from the guitar which reminds blues fading never trivial ... The pieces flow as blues ballads, giving us clear flavor of Leaf Hound, Jade Warrior, Skynyrd, Bachman Turner Overdrive and so on. Bhairavi Dhun it's an instrumental hymn of India, a classic 70's rock repertoire. (Mood resumed, for example, among others, even from the most 'modern' OM with 'God Is Good').
Crossing the Stratosphere offers moments of space-kraut that flows in usual ballads, and There and Back Again could be played by the Deep Purple and finally the last piece 'Reverberations' ia a echoing of Uriah Heep playing prog.
The album has a more prog and personal touch, better than the first.
