IMPROGRESSIVE

There seems to be a lot of interesting bands in Hungary today. MINDFLOWERS is one of them and their album "Improgressive" is really impressive. Four guys playing instrumental jazz-fusion influenced progressive rock with reminiscences to Frank GAMBALE, KING CRIMSON, LIQUID TENSION EXPERIMENT, Pat METHENY and SHADOWLINES.

These four rather young musicians will surely become world-class musicians. They are very technical skilled and I guess that they are listening a lot to DREAM THEATER with all their side projects as well as jazz-rock bands such as BRAND X, MAHAVISHNU ORCHESTRA, RETURN TO FOREVER and WEATHER REPORT. If so, it explains the variation in their music.

Unfortunately Hungarian musicians seldom become recognized worldwide, but I hope that Mindflowers will find many listeners throughout the world. This album is a clear evidence that they have the potential to do so. I'm eagerly awaiting their future development, but until then I will listen to this album many times.
