“…The biggest compliment you can give to a band that has just delivered an instrumental concept album is that not for a second you will miss the vocals. You can find the most beautiful melodies on this album.”

Progarchives (english)

“…They are processing a varied and very charming kind of prog, warm, melodic, though not chumming up to mainstream on the other hand. ‘The Experience’ represents a real RPI highlight, an album which easily meets my preference. This works at best in one go, as the songs are fading into each other. Confirms my preference on bands hailing from Italy”

“…Closer si assesta su buoni livelli, tra parti lievi e robuste intrusioni dei sintetizzatori, a cui fa eco Artificial Thought, pezzi che confermano le doti di scrittura e le migliorie sostanziali rispetto al recente passato. La soave e impalpabile The wait introduce Traveler, ottima conclusione di un come back che mostra il salto di qualità avvenuto in questi cinque anni dai capitolini.”

Highlands Magazine n.93 (francais)

“La musique de ce deuxième album de LAVIANTICA est un sans faute. Aérienne, légère, voluptueuse, d’un grand raffinement mélodique, elle sera de nature à séduire tous les amateurs des groupes précités et de CAMEL en particulier. Un opus fortement recommandé! (****½) ”

“…“The Experience” è un lavoro intrigante e degno di attenzione e considerazione, la sfida dei Laviàntica è stata affrontata con coraggio ed il risultato è senza dubbio positivo. Bravi.”

“…Het album is een goed voorbeeld van wat ik een luisterplaat noem. Niet gehinderd door (hoogdravende) teksten kan je je laten meevoeren op de prachtige authentieke muziek. Bij voorkeur met hoofdtelefoon en je ogen dicht. De nummers worden onderling met elkaar verbonden door geluiden van het leven, zoals de stad en de natuur….”

“…A mí me ha sorprendido bastante lo bien que conjugan las partes de viento con las de piano en muchos pasajes. Estos seis músicos son capaces de crear atmósferas que te transportarán a paisajes idílicos, haciéndote recordar en muchas ocasiones a bandas tan míticas como Camel, Jethro Tull o Yes…”

“…The band’s melodic vein tends to prevail upon an overtly challenging, adventurous musical approach, but this is not a cheesy album and lovers of neo prog bands from the eighties will undoubtedly appreciate it…”

Highlands Magazine n.68 (francais)

“…Avec ce premier album, LAVIANTICA signe une œuvre de haut vol, conçue par un groupe ayant désormais atteint la pleine maturité. Tous les éléments constituant le raffinement ou le caractère épique du rock progressif sont présents. Les instrumentistes sont tous de solides virtuoses tandis que le talent de composition du groupe est éminent…”

“…The opening track very much sets the scene with its celestial, wide-screen feel acting as hypnotic medication to settle the soul for the journey…And what follows is definitely music for the soul…”

Big Bang n.89 – March 2014 (francais)

“…Disparues donc les envolées vocales si typiques de l’Italie progressive par la langue utilisée bien sûr mais aussi par leur théâtralité, place ici à des joutes acérées entre les musiciens, auxquels vient se joindre un violoniste particulièrement inspiré. Clessidra se clôt ainsi de la meilleure des manières, offrant sur ses dernières minutes un progressif plus universel qui possède une réelle profondeur thématique et des séquences d’une intensité mélodique assez incroyable…”

“…Laviàntica a réussi ce que peu de nouvelles formations ont réussi c’est-à–dire capter l’attention. C’est la preuve qu’il n’est pas nécessaire d’offrir des compositions complexes et performantes. Il faut juste y mettre de l’émotion…”

“…Clessidra risulta fresco e soprattutto piuttosto curato e pensato, in special modo negli arrangiamenti, dove il gruppo mi pare abbia posto parecchia attenzione ed equilibrio. Un lavoro accattivante e molto piacevole…”

Sea Of Tranquility (english)

“…However what isn’t up for debate is whether Clessidra is any good, with relaxed themes stretched out, but not overly so, into incisive yet never forceful Prog come Neo; keyboards cajoling, guitars suggesting, bass roaming, drums busy, yet never Portnoyesque. Indeed it is the feel of a time gone by and an age not often revisited by debuting bands, yet after hearing the poised restraint of “La Pioggia”, or the singing guitar line in “Icaro”, you really have to ask why more bands aren’t operating in this classy, less bombastic setting…”

“…Se finora la proposta che giunge dalla capitale, un (prog) rock lineare, fatto con gusto, melodico e decisamente piacevole, non vi ha del tutto convinto, potreste ricredervi con la mini suite (“Laviàntica”) che chiude come meglio non potrebbe l’album…”

True Metal (italian)

“…Clessidra è, dunque, un’opera gradevole ed interessante realizzata da una band in grado di fornire raffinati intrecci strumentali (sui quali si vorrebbe un cantato un po’ più caratterizzato), messi al servizio prevalentemente di un mood rarefatto ed elegante invece che degli sterili virtuosismi in cui a volte il progressive indulge…”

Descubre la Caja de Pandora (spanish)

“…Laviàntica es uno de los grandísimos grupos que están surgiendo de forma independiente y que tienen una calidad fuera de lo normal. Nunca tendrán el apoyo de una gran compañía, pero tendrán el nuestro. Tendrán el apoyo de quienes saben apreciar que la música se hace para los oídos no para las orejas. Y yo desde estas páginas y con mis humildes palabras los erijo a lo más alto del Olimpo de lo progresivo. Imprescindibles por muchos años, sin duda…”
