Prog Archives review:    " While the opening 12-min+ "Narcotique" is a typical Dionysos blues-based track, it comes with plenty of drama, interplay, interludes and changes of tempo.  "L'Age Du Chlore", is an up-tempo affair evenly shared between organ and guitar reminiscent of Purple in their proggier moments and even The Nice, due to Mathieu's presence.  But the better has yet to come with the mid-tempo instrumental "L'Age d'Or" where the flute fights the guitar for supremacy early on, with the organ lurking just under, underlined by the efficient drumming until the flute seems to win and the track strangely fading out, to come back more energetic with a vengeful guitar.  The album closes on the "Agneau De Dieu" (God's lamb), another hard driving organ-dominated rocker where Clement's riffy guitar is the main feature, especially in its middle section, where he hints at some Frippian tricks."
