LA RECENSIONE

Surely, I attended alongside 200 other lucky ones a gig, that for its intensity, formal perfection, and superb setlist choice, remains one of my top five favorites in my life.

The cohesion of the new line-up is complete, Daniel's vocal form is amazing and, apart from a slip during "To the shoreline", borders on absolute perfection. As usual, it leaves you stunned how the good Gildenlow manages to sing and play the lead guitar incredibly, considering the difficulty of the scores and the singing, especially regarding the pieces of "Remedy lane".

The setlist also includes the wonderful "The physics of Gridlock", which shows how fantastic the group is even in the choirs.

None of the new musicians make you miss the old bandmates; I actually believe they have brought new energy and are more in line with the new direction taken by the mastermind.

In short, those who weren't there missed a great concert.

Finally, I believe this band is the best around, both in the studio and live, instrumentalists of simply overwhelming superiority, gifted with absolute groove levels and excellent interaction with the audience, proponents of a musical offering never pointless.

Shalom.
