Letras sobre sexo brutal, muerte y locura desgarran una música retorcida y preciosa a la vez, que abruma por su capacidad de iluminar con oscuridad, que maravilla por su excepcional sentido de la belleza, y que es capaz de transportarnos a cuentos de hadas o sumergirnos en verdaderos akelarres, como el de “Drip, drip”, o a cantos de faunos como en la brutal apertura con “Diana”. Este disco no es recomendable. Es obligatorio. También por su artwork, con una portada de otro mundo y un interior que muestra un genial dibujo que sólo entenderán los que han probado ciertos hongos.
 
ENGLISH
Reissue of First Utterance, the debut album of the progressive folk band Comus. It was released in 1971, with the opening song "Diana" being released as a single.
First Utterance was notable for its unique blend of progressive rock, folk, psychedelia, and elements of paganism and the macabre. The overall thematic tone of the album is of vulnerable innocence facing abusive power,[1] with songs dealing with such themes as violence ("Drip Drip"), rape ("Diana", "Song to Comus"), and criticism surrounding electroconvulsive therapy ("The Prisoner"). These themes contrast starkly with the acoustic sound of the record, featuring acoustic guitar, violin, flute, and lyrical, almost Arcadian, female harmonies.
