The third album from this band from Brazil.
The band is a trio with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, keyboards and vocals.
This is their third album and their record label is based in...... Norway.
The band is a symphonic prog rock band and their music is pretty close to what the, so far, greatest band from Brazil in this genre released many decades ago. I am off course referring to Sagrado Coracao Da Terre. What a band !
Caravela Escarlate is very much carving out their own niche and platform in the symph prog scene.
The vocals are in Portuguese and the music is pretty pastoral and soft. There is both a lot of old Camel, Genesis and some local folk rock here.
Some of the music is eclectic enough to make the listener drop everything else they are doing and just concentrate on listening to this album.
The organ and guitars are very good. Ditto for the vocals.
The songs are also very good on this three quarters of an hour long album.
This is a band which should by now be fully established as one of the better symphonic prog bands. Not only in Brazil but also world wide.
This is indeed a very good album.
3.5 points
