"Responding to the big demand, the joint-venture between Colossus (The Finnish Progressive Music Association) and Musea proudly presents its brand new concept-album: The 7 Samurai "The Ultimate Epic"! Here's a progressive rock concept-album inspired by the famous film by Akira Kurosawa (1954). The story has been divided in three chapters, and Tempano (Venezuela), Consorzio Acqua Potabile(Italy) and Taproban (Italy) have been chosen to interpret one track. The total length of each suite is around 25 minutes. The sound remains faithful to the spirit of seventies progressive rock music: original keyboards (Hammond organ, Moog, Mellotron, Fender Rhodes, Grand Piano etc.) are favoured, and the bands avoid loops, drum machines or other Eighties and Nineties digital sounds. The three groups involved have composed three magnificent Progressive rok epics, reminding all the Seventies masters (Genesis and Jethro Tull for the first named, Banco Del Mutuo Soccorso or King Crimson for the second one, Emerson, Lake and Palmer for the last one, amongst others...), but each piece is also faithful to every band's style and personality. Brilliant!"
