WITH A LITTLE HELL FROM MORE FRIENDS

Greco Bastian returns with his second fully formed album. While he had been active for a number of years his debut album, With A Little Hell From My Friends realized his dream of enrolling full time musicians to perform his compositions. The cast list from that album was a who's who of the stars of the prog rock scene. For this second album Greco has assembled a similarly impressive list of musicians to contribute, too many to list individually in this review but key bands performers are drawn from include Miriodor, Mercury Tree, Yugen, Heldon & Far Corner! The album is dark and brooding with the major influences appearing to be Univers Zero, Magma and Present. How all these disparate elements come together to produce such a coherent album is amazing. Congratulations Greco, I'm looking forward with anticipation to the next installment, highly recommended.
