Antares biography
Not to be confused with the German Symphonic group of the same name, ANTARES was a minor Italian band of the late-seventies that consisted of Marco Tessitore (keyboards, vocals), Joseph Kali (guitars), Ennio Barone (bass, vocals) and Lorenz Shulze (drums, effects, guitars). They released one album, ''Sea of Tranquillity'' (1979), a conceptual work based on the Apollo 11 moon landing. Very little is known of the musicians although Antonio Bartoccetti of ANTONIUS REX co-wrote two of the tracks and the album was actually recorded in Oslo. It's a largely instrumental work - the few lyrics are sung in English - that blends mainstream pop with spacey atmospheres and some electronics. Other than the Bartoccetti connection, ANTARES doesn't have a great deal in common with other Italian artists of the period and tends to draw comparisons with ELOY and PINK FLOYD. ''Sea of Tranquility'' was reissued on CD by Mellow in 1994.
