DESCRIPTION
After the success encountered by the KALEVALA and THE SPAGHETTI EPIC projects, the French label Musea and the Finnish fanzine Colossus are associated once again for a titanic piece of work: THE Colossus Of Rhodes. Subtitled "The Seventh Progressive Rock Wonder", this new double-CD is based on one of the Seven Wonders of the World. This is also the main theme of a movie directed during the Fifties by Sergio LEONE, an obvious link with the previous project. An Italian-dominated international cast (LEVIATHAN, GREENWALL, SINKADUS, MAD CRAYON, VELVET DESPERADOS and REVELATION) has been chosen for that matter. In more than twenty minutes, every band has been given the chance to display it's own interpretation of the work. Once again, the spirit of the masters of Seventies symphonic Progressive rock has been faithfully observed, including the wide range of the sounds of that era: analog keyboards, Mellotron, no electronic drum kit... The result is splendid.
