Title: Not what I expected.
Product review: The name Alea Jacta Est is not a real common name, but I'm wondering if its the same band I was looking for. I would have associated Alea Jacta Est with the Darkwave Avant Garde style of the early 1990's French group "Lucie Cries" or the various compilations "L'Appel De La Muse, Vol.1, 2, 3" etc.This album is not even close, rather it more resembles the late 1970's style of power guitar, bass and drums. Bluesy? Maybe a little. Pink Floyd? Hardly.This release may appeal to people who enjoy listening to FM radio, or the more mainstream rock music going around. That's why I gave it two stars and not one. However, if you're looking for the unusual, experimental, sophisticated sound of a French Darkwave band, stay very far away from this release.
