Philippe Luttun - The Taste Of Wormwood (2014) {Musea Parallele}



Philippe Luttun - The Taste Of Wormwood (2014) {Musea Parallele}
Rock / Progressive Rock / Progressive Metal

We have just discovered a new shining star in the bright Progressive rock universe, a comet named Philippe LUTTUN, whose forthoming arrival should make a deep impact ! This amazing French multi-instrumentalist offers today a cinematic concept-album inspired by Chernobyl's nuclear disaster that happened April 26th 1986, from its causes to its most terrific consequences. This is not for all audiences ! Published in the year 2014 on the Musea Parallèle label, "The Taste Of Wormwood - Voices From Chernobyl" displays eight grandiose tracks, entirely performed by Philippe Luttun, only helped by a female singer here and there. One could be reminded of Pink Floyd, Clearlight, Porcupine Tree, Liquid Tension Experiment or Pulsar, these influences being perfectly assimilated and remixed, often completed by slavic (The action takes place in the U.S.S.R.) or electro touches. In the end, there's no other way than admitting that the word "masterpiece" has been tailor-made for this album!
