XAAL is definitely part of the Zeuhl movement, and adds to this basic ingredient a touch of Progressive jazz-rock, psychedelic and new musics. This French trio (Guitar, bass & drums) started their career with a great album "En Chemin", recorded in 1991. The roaring bass proves to be worthy of Jannick TOP's, while the Christian VANDER-like drums answer point by point to Jad AYACHE's energetic guitar. This complex music can be defined as the crossing between PRESENT, KING CRIMSON's "Red" and MAGMA. For their second and last album "Seconde Ere" (1993), this line-up has reached the peak of a KING CRIMSON-meets-Zeuhl style ! By integrating Robert FRIPP's dissonance and saturated guitar solos with Kobaian's hypnotic rhythms, the band manages to get to the peak of power and violence. A breathtaking music !
