Post Description

Studio Album, released in 1974, Italy.

Rock Progressivo Italiano.

ALUSA FALLAX is another band from the fruitful italian scene, who falls into the vast and sad universe of bands which have unleashed a "masterpiece debut" album and no follow ups whatsoever... Their album "Intorno Alla Mia Cattiva Educazione" is basically symphonic rock with waves of flute, mellotron and layers of acoustic guitar passages, on the best LOCANDA DELLE FATE style, although with darker passages. Fans of mellower Italian symphonic will likely find "Intorno...". AN INDISPENSABLE GEM!!! 


A classic! One of the most brilliant works in Italian progressive style. If I could, I would give it six stars, because "In Torno..." is one of the most exquisite stuffs I heard. Cirla"s emotive rough voice reminds me Leonardo Sasso"s voice (LOCANDA DELLE FATE singer, another Italian monster), and the music is complex, melodic and beautiful. Lots of Mellotron, flutes and acoustic guitar along 13 non-separated tracks, conforming a fascinating concept album. Classic landscapes, jazzy touches and impressive originality. There are incredibly wonderful eleven minutes here, among tracks 2 and 4, that can resume the progressive rock quintessence, but the rest of "In Torno..." never loses interest. A true masterpiece!
