Drama (32)

Symphonic prog band was formed in the mid 1990's in Rouen, France. In 1995 they released their first self titled album with Eric Azhar (guitars), Richard Langlois (keyboards) Jean-François Duboc (bass), Laurent Guillot (drums) and Jean-Marc Leclerc (additional percussion). For their second release Flying through the 21st Century (1998), Jean-Marc Leclerc and Richard Langlois leave the band so Eric Azhar takes the keyboards and they recruit a vocalist named Louis de Fusco. In the year 2000 Drama was invited to Baja Prog where along with After Crying, Eclat, Isildurs Bane and Pallas (2). In the year 2005, Drama surprises with their album called Stigmata of Changes with a completely different lineup formed by Eric Azhar (who claims from keyboards back to the guitar) and bassist Jean-François Duboc from the original formation plus keyboardist Ralph Adam and a new vocalist Yvon Lucas. Their new material and Adam's keyboards are pretty decent, heavily influenced by Genesis and Pink Floyd again with some bluesy and folk influences.
