Frequently compared to Macedonia's most famous progressive rock group Leb i Sol, personally I don't hear it so much. DEN ZA DEN are way more fiery, with a stronger melodic sense. Still there's no denying the late 70's fusion sound. What separates Den za den from the pack is the exceptional guitarist, the distinct melodies, and perhaps best of all, the insane drumming along the lines of Arti + Mestieri. I'm a sucker for active drummers, so I naturally rate this one higher than other fusion albums of the era. Maybe Slovakia's Fermata is the closest comparison amongst the usual suspects like Mahavishnu Orchestra and Weather Report. (from rateyourmusic.com)
