Zypressen (ツィプレッセン) is/was a Japanese chamber music quintet with ties to fellow countrymen Lacrymosa. Their
music is more in the lighter side of things and they can be compared at times to Univers Zero (not to say they sound
like them, but as a point of reference) and it slides into Zeuhl territories at times. While the lineup consists of an
electric guitar, drums & percussions, the dominant instruments in their tracks are the classical instruments such as
cello, violin viola, piano, flute and clarinet. Their s/t album from 1996 is hard to track and supposed to be out of print,
but can found occasionally at online stores or auctions. In any case, well worth the trouble of locating it, as the
album manages to keep a good flow of interchanging sounds/themes and electric vs. acoustic tracks. « hide |
