Magma – Mythes et Legendes (1985) (@256)
19 Nov 2009
(Review from progarchives.com)
This is a pretty strange compilation. Not only is there only one complete song on this (all others are excerpts) – the rare single Klaus Kohmbalad – but the album also contains narration by Christian and Stella Vander (in French rather than Kobaian, fortunately!), explaining what the songs and excerpts are about.
The narration is interesting and pleasant to listen to, though. For instance when Christian tells us the story of Rďah Sahiltaahk, a song about a holy Kobaian who thought he could control the elements of nature and died because of it, or when Stella recites a few lines from the poem on the sleeve of 1001 Centigrades. Albeit it is only a small insight into the mind of Christian Vander, it is worth treasuring.
The excerpts expose the listener to a lot of Magma’s typical elements while being gentle to the ears of those that have not heard any Zeuhl yet.
Track List:
01. Kobaia – 6:09
02. Stoah – 4:42
