This is the first best-of album from this band from Italy.
The band was a sextet on this album with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars, piano, keyboards, flute, saxophone and vocals.
This eighty minutes long album was released last year through MaRaCash own Bandcamp site. I don't normally review best-of albums. But this band deserve a bit of attention and I suspect that the readers of this blog know about this album. Hence, I am reviewing it.
Malibran has released five studio albums, three live albums and a rare-and-unreleased album. I have reviewed their five studio albums both in this blog and in ProgArchives.
The music is a blend of neo-prog and RPI.
The music is melodic and epic. It is also pretty symphonic at times. As this is a compilation album, there is a pretty big difference between these songs who were originally released between 1990 and 2009. There are some good flutes on some of the tracks and some very good Italian vocals.
The overall quality is good and this is a good compilation for those who are curious about this band, one of the better new RPI bands.
