Easter Island's self-titled 1979 masterpiece rightfully stands in the midst of the top 10 US Prog Classics. It offers an emotionally captivating experience, marked by the melodic ebb and flow that is definitive of dexterously multilayered symphonic prog, interwoven with outbursts of heavy riffs. From the lush Mellotron textures and melodic bass lines of Genius of the Dance to the heavy progression of Face-to-Face, this is an album that grows within its listeners like a benevolent virus. The highlight of the album is the 17-minutes long Alchemist’s Suite, including the oneiric sequence of Telesterion, an evocative tribal piece of percussion and electronics that radiates with spacey keys and adds an almost cinematic twist to the album’s lavish tapestry. This is a strictly limited to 400 copies reissue, in 2 numbered pressings (250 black and 150 splatter vinyl), a true testament to Easter Island’s oeuvre, featuring the original covers artwork, and including a Bonus CD with rare and unreleased live tracks and a 12-page booklet with the official band’s biography and previously unseen photographic material.
