Quasar Lux Symphoniae - The Enlightening March of the Argonauts (1996)

The fourth album from this band from Italy.

The band was a sextet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars, piano, keyboards, male and female vocals.

This band started out as a heavy metal band on their first two albums before they went progressive rock.

... Some sort of progressive rock, that is. We are talking rock operas here.

Their previous album, the 1994 album Abraham, was a rock opera.

The Enlightening March Of The Argonauts is also a rock opera. 

The music is a mix of musicals music and progressive rock. The music is not particular technical or intricate. It is more like straight forward rock opera with some goth influences and some Pink Floyd influences.

The music is very melodic. It is also being shot to pieces by the abysmal bad male vocals. These vocals is painfully bad. 

I am again really failing to find much good on this album. It is full of cliches and not so much innovation or own ideas. 

This is a decent enough album but just that.
