Created in 1988 in Moutier, in the Swiss Jura, Galaad died at the beginning of 1997, leaving two orphan albums, "First February" in 1992 and especially "Vae Victis", album which, in 1995, makes recognize the group with bigger scale, especially for its innovative qualities in the progressive genre. Galaad gives this style - truly popular in the 70s - a note of renewal. The poetic texts in French are melted in metal and groove, the group explores the pop rock by rendering it a unique form. Songs are of full of shifting moods, aggressive singing, complex rhythms, soaring guitar solos, fantastic Moog lines, and beautiful pastoral flute and piano duets. Another group in the new wave of French neo-progressive bands.
