about

"Le Survivant" (Musea, 2017) deals with pollution, global warming, lobbies ruling the world and prevailing economic interests. Here's a powerful concept-album, driven by political lyrics, faithful to the ecological and militant spirit that was already in the air for the first opus. Let's note that talented musicians were invited for the recording, such as Eric HALTER on double-bass, Cédric AFFRE on drums or Paul CRIBAILLET on piano. The disc is accompanied by a twenty page booklet, illustrated by the beautiful paintings of Michel PHILIPPON, melting Jean COCTEAU's surrealistic and poetic vision with Marc CHAGALL's strange world. With this latest offering, no doubt ORION has offered its best piece of work !

Deux ans après “La Face Visible” ORION sort sous le label Musea son son quatrième album intitulé “ Le Survivant ”. Un album concept qui parle de la pollution, du réchauffement climatique, des lobbies qui mènent le monde et des intérêts économiques qui prédominent . Un disque puissant avec des textes engagés . Le groupe veut apporter sa pierre à l’édifice pour une prise de conscience et une grande mobilisation des gens face aux dangers qui menacent notre Planète.
Leur combat ne date pas d’aujourd’hui puisque leur premier album “La Nature vit l’homme lui critique... réalisé il y a une quarantaine d’années parlait déjà d’écologie et de pollutions en tous genres .
Entouré de la même équipe, présente sur le 3 ème opus, le duo de choc Janusz Tokarz et Patrick Wyrembski a fait appel à d’autres musiciens reconnus pour leur talent dans le monde du jazz mais aussi dans divers styles musicaux ( Eric Halter à la basse/contrebasse, Cédric Affre à la batterie, Paul Cribaillet au piano ) .
Ce disque est composé de 8 titres dont un instrumental d'une durée totale de 45’25 de musique .
L’édition est accompagnée d’un livret de 20 pages illustré avec de très belles oeuvres de Michel Philippon mêlant la vision surréaliste poétique de Cocteau au monde étrange de Chagall .
Avec ce dernier ”bijou” ORION signe sans doute son meilleur album.

Their 5th album 'Virtual Human' received rave reviews. ... more

When you like your prog to be more beautiful and/or accessible than prog-proggy, than this is for you! Melodic as hell and yes, Peter Falconer is quite a singer! That wouldn't go half the way without the solid songs of Pat Sanders. A great combination of skills ;-) Carsten Pieper
