Steps On Edge

MAGNESIS has perpetuated for a long decade a certain French tradition of dramatic and sophisticated songs that was so well embodied by ANGE in the Seventies. The vocalist Eric TILLEROT and his band of merry troubadours have developed a significant discography, including epic concept-albums evolving between songs, medieval universe and Progressive rock. One can recall the first album Les Voyages de Mikado (1992), a historical panorama about the Burgundy Dukes' epic, whereas Etang Rouge was inspired by fantasy legends. Now on the Musea label, MAGNESIS present it's indisputable masterpiece, the most successful L'Immortel Opra (2005). This is once again a concept-album dealing with themes that are dear to the band: imagination, a pact with the Devil... And this time, even the great Wolfgang Amadeus MOZART himself is involved ! Here is an album that will delight the Seventies-nostalgic fans, but also every bucolic Progressive rock connoisseur. To be discovered !
