(Review from progarchives.com)

This group from the progressive rock movement of Italy, left for Germany after their formation. They took up residency in Munich where they recorded their only album.

Their sound is like mixing Sabbath riffs with Jan Dukes de Grey, Traffic pacing, and some Morrison darkness in the lyrics.

The 9-minute standout track “Clapping and Smiling” is really quite a departure from the earlier tracks, featuring a lovely piano and folksy acoustic guitar for the first third. Then things again get powerful with hard vocals, Bill Ward style drumming and guitar that begs to be played loud. That final third of the song slows down again and gets pretty spacey and reminds of a little Syd Barrett were he fronting a hard rock band.

The album closes with a nice acoustic piece called “Buzzard” which serves to smooth out the previous sonic assaults and talk us in off the ledge. The final lyrical line is: “My pain will serve to be something.”

Massimo Pravato was killed in a car accident before the album was even released, causing “Hero” to disintegrate.
