A Milan-based band led by Marco Galletti (keyboards), Arcansiel started in 1982 as ''Sprouts'' covering mainly Genesis songs. By mid-80's Galletti had already written some original material, while the band was renamed to Arcansiel, featuring also Gianni Lavagno on drums, Nico Clerici on bass, Piero Zancanaro on clarinet/sax and Claudio Baretta on guitars. It was the time for Arcansiel to start performing live, while they also recorded their first LP ''Four Daisies'', released on Contempo Records (re-released two years later on CD).
The album holds some similarities with the style of mid-70's Genesis and Marillion, but it also has a strong personality, mainly to the use of the saxes of Piero Zancanaro. Their sound is definitely out of fashion, regarding the year of the album's release: Galletti's organ passages are clearly in the vein of Tony Banks, his synth parts are also well-crafted and the guitar work of Barretta tends to 80's UK prog sound with a Floyd-ian reference with nice melodies and catchy grooves. Zancanaro is definitely the pleasant surprise here.His melodic sax solos are full of emotion and delicacy, adding the band a touch of originality. Vocals, held by Galletti as well, are not the strong point of Arcansiel, without being an obvious weakness.
