Moongarden - Christmas Night 2066 : 2 x CDs

SKU 33-MRC 124
"A musical film composed of eight "scenes", each representing a crucial moment of a family drama that has the end of everything we know as its backdrop. After the bucolic snowy landscape of After All, set in the not so distant Christmas of 2066, the madness of war is narrated in three moments (The Armageddon Parade/God's Will/The Power The Might) before the forced separation of Remember My Voice and the terrible experiences faced by the child protagonist of the second triptych of songs (Rain of Fire/The Forest of Glass/Sick Tranquility).
Hope returns with family reconciliation in the poignant Just You and Me and the hope for a new, hopefully better, world in Building a New World before returning to the opening scene of After All.
With a real war that assaults our sight and conscience every day, Moongarden's album, their ninth, invites us to consider the daily madness that propaganda plunges us into every day. Our ideologies would have little reason to exist without us, after all. Perhaps the story has a happy ending, and yes, perhaps this happy ending is naïve in the light of day, but we would like to believe that humanity's will to live (and create!) is something that will resist any self-destructive impulse.
Musically suspended between vintage atmospheres in the best tradition of symphonic rock and modern sound design thanks to Cristiano Roversi’s decades of work as a producer, the album represents not only the band's first concept album, but also their creative peak, being in all respects, the culmination of a career that starts way back in the nineties to reach a style that is now undeniably the Moongarden sound that we all know and appreciate."
