And early in the record the musical moves sometimes work themselves into classical tributes; which can sound a bit out of place. A drum solo follows which sounds somewhere between Carl Palmer and Billy Cobham, yet somehow feels forced and perhaps an example of overplaying.
Overall, however, I found the rhythm section to be pretty strong. Moving the pieces along in interesting fashion. Keeping busy but not overly so. The long title track is somewhat ruined in that it eventually descends into what is simply a blatant rip-off of Renaissance's "Ashes Are Burning. It simply doesn't work and the album ends in disappointment. This is no 4 star album. Review by apps79 Special Collaborator Honorary Collaborator. Very soft and delicate musicianship with plenty of sensitive polyphonic lines and light Classical influences in the piano themes, while the switch between acoustic and electric guitars are numerous, though the later are characterized by a very soft touch, hardly recognizable.
The long ''Archipielagos De Guernaclara'' shows M. A's diversity as a group, as the music ranges from Classical piano themes to rural Folk Rock to semi-loose Jazz Rock with different variations throughout. A rather incosistent piece with unrelated moods, yet the technical efficiency of the group is really great. Closing cut ''Corales De La Cantata Saturno'' is an almost Medieval-flavored choir-type song with Lito Vitale's harsichord and organ in evidence, still deeped in his Classical influences, and a really beautiful choir delivering very emotional and grandiose singing.
The same album was reissued in with no less than five bonus tracks as extra material, all coming from M. Nothing very close to the band's classic sound, most of these pieces range from Acoustic Folk to Folk Rock with tons of quite excellent and mostly female vocals and basically acoustic instrumentation, even some mandolin can be heard in a pair of tracks.
At moments it seems that it desperately needs some more uplifting mood or additional energy and the music can get too soft. But some magical passages with beautiful melodies and thrilling vocal lines are also present. Recommended, especially if you love Classical-inspired Prog Folk. Those unfamiliar with this ensemble will receive a good overview of the scope of their repertoire on the first of these CDs, while existing fans most likely will find the second one most intriguing due to the unreleased material and the bonus video footage that makes up this CD.
And while the musical contents as such do leave a bit to be desired in order for this production to warrant a general recommendation, there are quite a few reasons for existing fans to take note of this production, if they haven't already done so that is. This album has got a very high rating so I purchased it.
I also happens to like the South American scene a lot. But what I found was a rather dysfunctional album. This album has it's base in some ELP like structures.
Then it branches out in all direction. That includes jazz, eclectic, prog folk and most things under this sun. Yes, even Zeuhl gets a honorary membership on this album. I like thinking outside the box. That is in fact what the term "progressive rock" means. But I am not sure if everything on Cornonstipicum is as clever as the tin says it is. The smell is better than the taste. I got the 59 minutes version and it seems like some bonus songs has been added. The last half of this album has pieces of music which simply does not work.
For example the extensive use of acoustic guitars does not work at all and the album dies an undignified death during the final half. But the first half an hour is great. Great, but not superb.
The title track is almost superb though. The rest of the album is a bit too dysfunctional for my liking. I cannot say this is an album I feel is as good as it's reputation. But it is still a good album which I am sure will bring joy to many homes during the next hundred years. Copyright Prog Archives, All rights reserved.

They produced their own records and concerts in an independent way. Their debut was "Transparencias", an exquisite album of classical.
Their second album was vocal oriented. This album is a highly recommended classic and certainly one of the best ever from Argentina. MIA's final release was a big project called "Conciertos", a 3-LP album comprising live recordings from the group's last set of shows. All of these come highly recommended, MIA were a unique musical ensemble with a definite progressive ethic.
