Insomnia - II (2024)

 

The second album from this band from Italy.

The band was a sextet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, moog, keyboards, synths, flute and vocals.

I know absolute nothing about this band. It is my understanding that their debut album was a rock'n'roll album. Or perhaps it was a traditional rock album. I don't know as it is difficult to find. 

Their second album, II, which I am reviewing here, has been released through one of my favourite labels, Marahcash Records. Hence my interest in this album.

The music on this fifty-two minutes long album is RPI. Classic RPI. 

The music is both melodic and pretty symphonic. 

The main instruments are guitars and keyboards. There are some programmed saxophones here too. The music is still organic with some good vocals.

There is indeed a lot of classic RPI here blended in with some more contemporary neo-prog. 

The vocals are good and ditto for the sound. This is a good album and one to check out if RPI floats your boat.
