"Atomic" - последний альбом из записанных в эпоху ярких сценических шоу и поддерживающий музыкальные традиции группы конца 70-х годов, один из наиболее интересных и ярких по содержанию, на мой взгляд. Даже я помню их музыку...
It may seems strange for you but back in the first half of 1980s this French-Italian band was one the most popular bands, which played electronic music, behind the Iron Curtain, in the USSR (of course, we heard only bootleg records, Western pop music, with little exeptions, was a kind of banned music in the USSR). For me it`s hard to rate them because of this sentimental feelings. So don`t take 5 stars close to the heart. Of course it`s not the music of same quality as Rick Wakeman or ELP.
For that time Rockets were very original.
Their music - a kind of techno-pop (they sang in English via vocoders with strong accent; albums were released mainly in Italy) with sci-fi lyrics and with a little touch of guitar rock sound. "Atomic" (1982) is their best album. Some beautiful instrumentals would remind you of early Jarre, songs - of Kraftwerk.
