ALTER ECHO – Alter Echo (Musea, 1993; recorded in 1979)

Swedish vocals, English vocals
International relevance: **

Synthesizer heavy soft symphonic prog with pop leanings that was unearthed by the Musea label in the early 90's. Some well played Genesis moves with weak adolescent sounding vocals on top makes for a terribly unengaging listen. Only for the most hardened symphonic collectors, but I doubt even those would listen to this very often. Unless the idea of a high school proto Marillion tickles your fancy.

The band appears as Alter Ego on Caprice's V/A comp ”Tvärsnitt – Collection of Ten Unreleased Young Swedish Jazz and Rock Groups in 1978”.
