This is certainly the best of the current crop of Italian bands that I've
heard thus far; there's twelve minutes of exciting psycho-drama spread
thickly over three tracks. For a three piece (Maurizio Curadi: gtr,
Gianfranco Migliaccio: bass & Daniele Caputo: drums)they create a very full
sound with Curadi's vibrant guitar buzzing, stinging and generally pervading
every inch of precious vinyl. Whilst this record could easily be mistaken
for the out-pourings of some time-shrouded acid crazed combo of the late
60's there is a bizarre Mediterranean tinge to, particularly, "Dreamin'
Demon" which brings some sense of originality yet the track itself sounds
like a heady mixyture of a Sergio Leone western film score and the
Yardbirds' "Heart Full Of Soul."
