Cafeine - La Citadelle

CAFEINE plays deep prog with stong seventies influences. The standard prog line-up is augmented with flute, violin and bassoon. CAFEINE will appeal to fans of European prog with influences from French seventies symphonic prog. 

The first album in 1994, "La Citadelle" is a large and varied palette of influences: from medieval music to jazz-rock, through Progressive rock and French song along the way. The "Nouveaux Mondes" (Meaning "New Worlds") relate to various aspects: air to matter, history or love, and even Man conquering space.
