ERIS PLUVIA biography
ERIS PLUVIA is Italian and they make classic symphonic rock with good you influence folk and pastorals. This band combines prog with an array of acoustic instruments such as, flute, soprano sax, acoustic guitar and violin and the result is prog with a very Baroque and folk sound. The music is supposedly quite strongly reminiscent of CAMEL and ROUSSEAU, which would put it squarely in the melodic, symphonic, progressive rock camp. The vocals are in English.

"Rings of Earthly Light" is quite simply one of the best Italian symphonic rock albums of the 90s. This release features very melodic prog that has a very orchestrated composition style. This is not full symphonic writing but it has orchestral influences. All the fans of CAMEL or those that have enjoyed with the new disks of HOSTSONATEN and QUIDAM can already go running to for him. ERIS PLUVIA later became the ANCIENT VEIL.
