The second album from this band from France.
The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, keyboards and vocals.
To my regret, I have been unable to get a copy of their 2009 debut album Machiavelique. So this is my only review of a Gambit album. That is a shame.
Their music is neo-prog. Neo-prog with French vocals and some symphonic prog influences.
Three good references are Gens De La Lune, Magnesis and Ange.
The music is both melodic and pretty complex at the same time. The French vocals is very good. The rest of the band does a good job too on this fifty minutes long album.
The organ sound is really good and adds a lot of 1970s references and sound. The songs are all very good.
This album fits nicely into anyone's collection of French neo-prog and symphonic prog albums.
This is indeed a good album and it is a crying shame that this band never released another album.
3.5 points
