Instead, it's a symphonic musique concrete piece - at times proggy, at times funky, but always epic and always seemingly on the verge of implosion. Take \"L'enfant au Royaume des Mouches,\" which shifts pace about 5 times, feeling like a collection of loose ideas scraped from inside Vannier's brain and pasted together especially for the record. (It ends, eventually, with the sound of running water and an overdubbed church choir.) Actually, the more I listen to this, the more I agree with those dudes on the cover. Dang. Check these out, too: \"Danse des Mouches Noires Gardes du Roi,\" \"Les Garde Volent au Secours du Roi,\" \"Mort du Roi des Mouches.\" That shit just sounds pretentious, and I don't even know what it means - But it sure is good.
