Progressive Rock Band
Rock Progressive Italiano is a subgenre of Prog that boasts some of the greatest Prog bands of all time. One need only mention the likes of Premiata Forneria Marconi, Le Orme or Banco del Mutuo Soccorso to understand how important this genre is in the Prog community. Now in the modern era along comes Logos […]
Hoe klinkt de ultieme symfonische rock plaat? Die moet naar mijn mening toch wel aan deze eisen voldoen: sterke melodieën, langgerekte instrumentale passages met melodieuze gitaarsolo’s en ronkende toetsen. O ja, graag ook veel Hammond en Mellotron. Als je deze criteria naast het hier besproken album legt, dan kun je niet anders concluderen dat dit […]
I have to confess that unlike other reviews, in which I’m used to try interpreting the messages more or less hidden in an album, this time I’ve been helped by a band member. Catching the meaning behind the tracks was not easy even for an Italian speaking. The band has released only 3 albums in […]
Parmi les grandes et belles surprises de cette année, tout au moins parmi les formations peu connues, il y a LOGOS. Bien que ce soit déjà le troisième album de ce quatuor italien (les deux premiers datent de 1999 et 2001), « L’Enigma Della Vita » risque bel et bien d’être le premier à être […]
Le ciel est gris métallisé, la pluie ne va pas tarder à tomber. Comme s’il obéissait à plus fort que lui, le vent d’automne se déchaîne dans un bruit de gémissement et nous rappelle sa puissance destructrice. L’ombre d’un hiver précoce pèse sur nos frêles épaules. Comme un châtiment… Nous décidons de partir à la […]
It took LOGOS thirteen long years to create their third album L’ ENIGMA DELLA VITA (The enigma of life) but it was apparently worth the wait for this is one power house of an album. The only band member to survive into the current lineup is Luca Zerman who handles the keyboards and vocal duties. […]
It’s always nice when a package of new CDs drops through the letterbox, but nowadays there’s no shortage of free downloads out there if money’s a bit tight in any given month. One such freebie is ”Asrava”, the second self-produced album by modern Italian band Logos that’s available via their website. ”Asrava” comprises a diverse […]
I Logos sono una realtà veronese relativamente recente nel nuovo progressive italiano, ma è una realtà attiva da oltre un decennio con alle spalle ben due album in studio, “Logos” (1999) e questo “Àsrava” (2001), e uno dal vivo, “Totus Lupus” (1999). Attraverso tanti cambi di line-up, il periodo dei due dischi vede invece una […]
After the interesting but immature eponymous debut album, between August 2000 and February 2001 Logos recorded their second effort “Ásrava”. It’s another self production but the sound quality is definitively improved if compared with the previous work. The line up featured Fabio Gaspari (bass, acoustic guitar, nylon string guitar, vocals), Massimo Maoli (electric guitar, acoustic […]
There’s always something in the mid 90’s Italian Prog Scene that bothers me a lot, the dated keyboard sounds/the shameful sound of drums, I really don’t understand some of the things recorded in this particular time of decade, the bands wanted so bad emulate the 70’s sound, but most of them just don’t have equipement […]
