The fifth album from this band from Italy.
The band is a one-man-band with Ludovico Maggi Padovan on drums, bass, guitars, keyboards, clarinet and programming.
This is a new band to me as I have been recently made aware of them through ProgArchives. Its first album was back in 2022. I may get their first four albums for reviews sometime later this year.
Volume Primo is clocking in at fifty minutes.
The music here is fusion.
There is a lot of clarinets on this album and that instrument is the dominating solo instrument here. It is helped by a lot of guitars. Some pretty harsh riffing guitars, that is.
The music is indeed hard with some progressive metal influences.
The music is still pretty melodic and fluid. It is also pretty elegant at times too.
The result is a good album that feels more like a workmanlike one than a great one. Ludovico Maggi Padovan is not fulfilling his full potential on this album.
3 points
