A masterpiece of Japanese rock that combines lyricism and progressive rock.
This is the third album by Cosmos Factory, led by Morizono Katsutoshi. Lyrical melodies and technical compositions coexist, creating a work that evokes the depth and perfection of 1970s Japanese rock.
From the very beginning, a graceful interplay between guitar and keyboard unfolds, creating an impressive lyrical yet hard-edged sound. Morizono Katsutoshi's delicate guitar work and sense of melody permeate the entire album, creating a dramatic development. Side A has a progressive rock-like structure, while side B has a mellow AOR-like feel, embodying the multifaceted nature of 1970s Japanese rock. As the title "Storm's Diffuse Reflection" suggests, the album is characterized by a soundscape where energy and tranquility coexist. A masterpiece that combines perfection and musical tension.
