Review by philippe
5 stars This is Clivage's unmistakable awesome release. Definitely a reminiscence of best things ever offered in fusion jazz but all the elements are sublimated into a high class ethno-epic symphony. This is almost exclusively instrumental, making a large part to a brass ensemble. Technical, jazzy felt piano playing also have a great mention. Andre Fertier's keyobards parts are very similar in style to Cyrile Verdeaux's (Clearlight) in his most symphonic moments. This musical adventure is divided into different movements but composed as one long title, without transitions. It starts as a structured, catchy epic symphonic, majestic composition (with classic piano playing, almost medieval brass sequences) then it carries on an obsessed, uncontrolled jamming session, including ethnic percussions, splendid, grandiose oboe / sax combinations, always in a very symphonic, prog-y jazz mood. Some "spectral" female voices are added to the mix during the last movement. The tension gets higher, the trip out musical background reaches the soul to finish in an orchestral "orgy". Freak out symphonic rock that can ravish all progressive fans (from space rock, to fusion jazz and symphonic).
review from mutantsounds blog
Andre Fertier's dizzying sympho/acid/fusion/world music amalgam under the Clivage moniker hits a breathtaking peak of deep-in-the-pudding transcendent know-how with this little brainburner. On his second album here (his first posted by Jim a while back), Fertier sidles up with a subtle orchestral lead-in that scarcely prepares you for the frenzied endless Massiera-worthy cascade of blaring horn-driven symphonic riffs, chanting female choruses, Tippett-like pianistic abstractions and spiralling hand drums that explode out of the gate a few minutes down the line. It's a moment that has to be heard to be believed and this equilibrium befouling activity continues apace for all of the first side. Side two immediately kicks in with some super sick and sexy symphonized acid groove with a strong akin to Amon Duul 2's Da Guadeloop from Hijack before taking off to the land of the more explicitly ethno-tinged for the album's duration.
