Lazuli - Tant Que L'Herbe Est Grasse (2014)

 

The sixth album from this band from France.

The band was a quintet with a line-up of drums, marimba, guitars, leode, mandolin, keyboards, French horn and vocals.

Fish delivered vocals on one track.

The band returned again after a three years long album break.

This album clocks in at three quarters of an hour.

The music is a blend of eclectic prog and symphonic prog. 

The music is still pretty melodic with some dissonances blended into the melodies. 

Their use of their own invented instrument leode gives their sound and music its own identity. The female French vocals are both powerful and great.

The quality of the music is very good throughout. Lazuli has established themselves as one of the best French prog rock bands with this and their previous albums. Check out this album.

3.5 points
