Ampulla Magnifying (CD)
Interesting new ensemble from France incorporating many different influences. The quintet is led by Eric Lorcey who demonstrates his proficiency on both electric and acoustic guitar. The rest of the ensemble consists of keys, flute/vibes, bass, and drums. Jazz and classical influences are clearly evident and Lorcey's electric leads have a spitty, aggressive quality that has a Crimsonoid metallic mark. Lise Cantin's flute is featured quite prominently as a lead instrument at times, playing up the jazz aspect of the band. "Their music often oscillates from aggressive to psychedelic moments, featuring long instrumental passages, excellent bass lines and much free improvisation.
