Alphataurus - 2084: Viaggio Nel Nulla (2024)

The fourth album from this band from Italy.

The band is a sextet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars, piano, organ, synths, flute and vocals.

This is another band from Italy I thought had released their final album years ago and whose new album came as a big, big surprise.

The band album debuted in 1973 without much commercial success. So they released their second album in 1992 and the third one in 2012. And I thought that was it from this band.

Their first three albums are all good RPI albums. That in the classic RPI style in the vein of Banco and PFM.  

This year's album is a forty minutes long album in the classic RPI vein, complete with male Italian vocals and some good flutes, organs, guitars and synths generated mellotrons.

The sound is both contempory and classic RPI from the 1970s. The vocals is really good.

A couple of better songs is the only missing thing here on this good album. The band's four albums are all good and it is only fair and correct to give this band credit for being a classic RPI band. 

This album makes an RPI fan's heart beat faster.... and better.
