Released in 1999 by Musea, \"Dreams of Nekton\" turns out to be a real gem of complex and ambitious progressive rock. Guitars with Crimsonesque accents punctuate the assembly of an epic conceptual fresco, with vocals by an excellent female singer in their native language. At times she evokes the compatriot and colleague who had worked alongside Eduard ARTEMIEV almost twenty years before (on \"Warmth of Earth\"). However, the lyrics have been transcribed in English so that the rest of US can understand them... Overall, the music of the ensemble brings to mind the best parts of Japanese progressive, with a twist of Robert FRIPP, and digressions into the territory of progressive metal (which they play with technical skill and absolute mastery).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Prologue: Dream of Nekton \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Saga of Cadavers \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Boyond the Edge of Time \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Phoenix \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Fairytales of Stars: Last Song of Sun \/ Red Giants and Blue Dwarves \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Love \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Dancing Bells \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Dark Elf\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
