A wonderful Italian surprise, and nearly an immediately sold out back in '05, the stunning debut of RIDDLE finally is available again after being out of print for more than a year, this time in a remastered version, with one great bonus track (Space Zombies) and on papersleeve! Basic influence of Riddle is of course KING CRIMSON (as Riddle's guitar player, Jacopo Bertacco is a proud member of the "The League of Crafty Guitarists") but there are also some hints of Brian Eno soundscape collages and the more atmospheric and flowing part of the Canterbury sound. Riddle are fresh, energetic, skilful and top notch musicians that deserve a careful listening. Deluxe papersleeve edition, remastered, with one bonus track !
