Difraction

Priam was the revelation of the Corbigny Festival, held in August 1998, due to a memorable live performance in which previously unknown musicians unveiled to an astonished audience their icy and tense ambiences in the style of KING CRIMSON, which also becomes a hot delirium of ANGLAGARD (A group which, incidentally, was discovered and appreciated by the four members only a short time... after). Their leader guitarist Chris CASAGRANDE is no doubt about it the most faithful follower of the works of Allan HOLDSWORTH, as well as of the three Steve of Progressive rock (HACKETT, HOWE & ROTHERY). The 100% instrumental formula adopted for ... Three Distances - Irregular signs... is a little different of the one shown during live presentations, but it still remains full of energy and creativity. Still dominated by an amazing guitar with a definitely mastered technique, Priam's music can blend the hot and the cold, and it becomes each time more lyrical and quiet. The virtuoso passages are in the sty.
