Scented Gardens Of the Mind :
Although they only released one album, Allusa Fallax were formed in the mid-sixties and released several singles of minor interest. By contrast, their album is a masterpiece of complex progressive rock. All tracks make up a delightful, continuous suite of shifting dynamics, ranging from spoken parts with avant-garde noises to refined instrumental arrangements with flute, piano, string ensemble, electric and acoustic guitars and a lot of percussion, resembling the best of Gentle Giant. The interwoven vocal parts are the only ingredient that could possibly have been improved. Overall there is a strong classical music influence, giving the impression of serious musical competence. The album is highly recommended to fans of the uppermost Italian musical grandeur (a brand of music usually labeled ‘megalomania’ by ignorant rock reviewers).
