Customer Reviews:

what? Theatrical prog rock?.......2005-04-11

This group was a complete disapointment to me (along with Pulsar and Novalis). After reading a lot about how good they were i gave them a listen and it is NOT for every prog rock fan...So watch out! There is some terrible singing in here and also no great musicianship as some say. This is, my opinion of course ...but if you think of Prog Rock and bands like Yes, PFM, Area, ELP, Bruford, Hatfield and the north, etc come to your mind, . then this may not be to your liking...Give this a listen before buying!!

Wonderful Atmospheres.......2003-03-12

This is an excellent piece of music that effectively juxtaposes acoustic pastoral sections with more avante garde and aggressive passages. While there are superficial similarities to early Nursery Cryme period Genesis, the intricate ensemble work that can be found in Genesis is absent in Au Dela du Delire. Rather, Ange creates wonderful atmospheres through the use of the mellotron, organ, and heavy bass playing. While the vocalist certainly has a distinctive voice, it works perfectly within this framework. Excellent!

just french poetry.......2002-09-16

ANGE is a very pecular group.progressive rock,cool, violence sometime but with words only. not commercial: many french people don't know Ange very well, but the clever and poets love Ange..
Voices are pecular,strange, not very good voices, but it's ok for the sentences, music is very good.
every cd is a concept album. you can love one and hate an other.
good cds: from the begining to 1992, after, as you want. live albums are always good.
my best ANGE album is"emile jacotey"(1975) very slow,cool,like pink floyd,but with sentences, it's a fairy tale. but emile jacotey really exists, he's an old french highlander who told them many old stories.
"Au dela du délire" it's really crazy fairytales, anti clerical,middle-ages stories.
an other cd,"a propos de", it's many good reprises of famous french writers,composer and singers like jacques brel,georges brassens,charles aznavour,jacques dutronc,michel polnareff
Jacques Brel was very happy for the version of" a jeun"

but i don't like every ange album(like "vu d'un chien(1980)""la gare de troye(1983)""moteur(1981)""ange "(1990) and after 1992.
my best choice, best albums:
-Emile Jacotey(1975)
-A propos de(1982)
-Au delà du delire(1974)
-Caricatures(1972, remaster 1998)
-compilation"Ange" 1999, blue paper cover, ref:546315-2 universal, (songs from 1972 to 1976)
and the long format 3cd album with little book and pictures:
"Ad libitum" (1999) ...indispensable gift, like christmas elvis album!
also some live albums just for fan clubs(one every christmas).
you can find some very rare VHS SECAM live videos, but rare even in france.

A Master Piece.......2000-10-10

This is one of the best piece of art in the progressive rock. And it comes from France. If anyone loves this kind of music, this is one of the albuns one should have. Any music library without it is incomplete!
