Asia Minor - Between Flesh and Divine (1981, France) Symphonic Prog


A melancholy contemplative prog album from the fertile French scene. Between flesh and divine plods on like a rainy day, occasionally bursting into a tense angry fuzz guitar section reminiscent of luminous bands from the Italian prog scene with equally as much venom and vigor. This album certainly does have a genuine air of sadness to it being a culmination of the passionate contemplative flute playing with sparse synth textures, melodious guitar playing and the dead pan vocal delivery (the vocalist sounds like he has just been broken up with).

This one is a definite keeper, recommended for fans of staring gloomily out a rain splattered window or any of the great French or Italian prog bands .
