Flakes of pizzicato curling blue and white paint moving across the canvas like an impression of the sky. You are the bird high in the sky looking down on earth and everything happening there. Hear the wind tingle around your head, and the tinkling sounds from the surface. See how these surrealistic landscapes are changing far beneath while you are watching the different events that take place. The music has different cinematic elements. Some strange goblins singing strange music in the fields.

The music turns symphonic and da-daistic at the same time. There is a new genre introduced to me; Progressive psychedelica while I am absorbed by this gorgeous guitar loop. There is a psychedelic funeral dirge with a massive organ playing in minor. This is a strange picture created here; Burtonesk mixed with some Dali. I find a village with a circus with a merry go round singing its song. Abstract interludes take turn with some great rock music, it all sound very fragmentary.” Epitafio a la Permanencia pt
1.”
Takes you on a trip through different chapters on a strange adventure.
“Epitafio a la Permanencia pt
2.”
Sounds more dramatic with a touching piano, than babbling like a stream but turn hectic and more dramatic again. Organ drones and tinkling bells with a guitar woven in the structure.
“L’ age Délicieux ( la revolución perenne)” is like a surrealistic metal track with a metal riff and tribal percussion, very repetitive and hypnotizing with chanting mesmerizing vocals. The atmosphere is cinematic and dark like a metal band on peyote.
 “L’ age DĂ©licieux ( la revoluciĂłn perenne)” is build up slowly with a swinging tense bow working to a prog rock climax.Â

“La Dignidad del EspĂritu Bestia” is even more toward progressive rock and has a lot of harmonic elements. Sometimes it is like a rock opera like in “Destierro” with opera like vocals.
Epitafio a la Permanencia is an adventurous album like l surrealistic painting in bright colours; it has various influences from kraut rock bands such as Faust to more progressive rock. These elements do make Epitafio a la Permanencia into a complicated album that needs a few turns. There are some serious fantastic pieces of music here but to my personal taste it is all too fragmentary, but those who like this kind of freaky music should try this one.
