Aries - Double Reign [CD]

Aries IS a DUO FORMED BY FEMALE SINGER SIMONA ANGIOLONI AND MUSICIAN FABIO ZUFFANTI. THE LATTER IS WELL-KNOWN ON THE MUSIC SCENE AS a MEMBER OF DIFFERENT BANDS, FROM HOSTSONATEN TO MASCHERA DI CERA AND INCLUDING FINISTERRE. THIS IS THE SECOND ALBUM HE RELEASES TOGETHER WITH SIMONA ANGIOLONI AFTER THEIR SUCCESSFUL DEBUT WORK "ARIES" WHICH COMBINED PROG ROCK WITH FOLK MUSIC. THIS NEW ALBUM TAKES INSPIRATION FROM THE BOOK BY PAOLA CA Reign' che trae in parte la sua ispirazione dal libro della scrittrice Paola Capriolo 'Il doppio regno', RELEASED IN 1997. THE SURREAL ATMOSPHERE EVOKED IN THE BOOK ARE CONVEYED THROUGH ELECTRONIC, DARK AND POP SONORITIES WITH A HARDROCK FLAVOUR. THE RESULT IS MODERN PROG ROCK MUSIC, COMPLETELY DEPRIVED OF TRADITIONAL ROOTS. THE ALBUM FEATURES GUEST PERFORMANCES BY a STRING QUARTET AND BY VITTORIO DE SCALZI (NEW TROLLS) ON FLUTE.
