One of the most renowned French symphonic rock bands of the 70's. Even if often compared to King Crimson, Shylock had their own distinctive personality. An intricate mixture of progressive complex structures and dark lyrical atmospheres. The band consisted of four virtuoso players: guitarist Frédéric l'Épée (later with Philarmonie), keyboardist Didier Lustig, bassist Serge Summa and drummer André Fisichella. Produced in 1978, Ile de fievre can be considered their absolute masterpiece.
