Basically it's a blues jam, with something of psychedelia and heavy rock. 7. Ok, I remain in Deutschland and offer to you a masterpiece of progressive rock, a sophisticated, virtuosistic song, with literary lyrics!!!   |

Hmm, a very dull and repetitive basic tune but they make the most of it with different sections and interesting embellishments. Acceptable, 6. This album sounds like the group were divided over whether to play rock or Eurovision pop. I wouldn’t recommend any of the other tracks, some of which sound disturbingly like ABBA  . |

Interesting suite, almost heavy prog, with a great hard-blues riff. 7,5. And now, Black Widow |

Very good, quite atmospheric and it sounded like they were probably reminding the audience of the struggles in their recent history. 7. I have no idea what this is about  . |

Avantgarde and RIO... interesting mix... rumours and music, with vocals, no harmony but tonal variations... here on PA this group have few reviews but a very high score... Anyway, for me 7,5. Now an italian group, live. Song about partizans. |

I didn’t know that one. They certainly packed a load of parts into that one song while somehow managing to keep it all coherent which was most impressive, especially live. 8. |

Wow, a real musician. Concrete music. Proto electronic. Concrete music and most of electronic music are too much cerebral for me. I prefer to feel emotions. I can appreciate that music with my brain but my body and my heart remains cold. Score 5,5. And now Family, a mini-suite |

I once had a work colleague who went to the US on a holiday following a Springsteen tour, going to each concert. I expect he’s listened to this enough for the message to have brainwashed him so that if anything goes badly wrong he’ll be more likely to kill himself. At least it wasn’t saying go and shoot a load of other people first. Musically the song sounded nothing out of the ordinary but it was sung and performed very well and I can understand its appeal for the fans so will give it 7. Now some music from 70 years ago. |

Suggestive, psychedelic. Too much repetitive the rhythm. Score 6,5. And now, The Boss, Roulette. |

That was great, I loved the two keyboards, the well arranged real orchestra, funky bass and even the drum solo was fairly interesting. 8. |

Suggestive but quite monotonous. 5. Now a mini suite, by Quatermass: |

6. It sounds like the Power Pop that derived from Punk in the late 70s. |

This video was blocked so I listened to a live version. I just didn’t find the music at all interesting, they played it louder towards the end but it was still just a basic accompaniment to the singing and it was a long 8 minutes. I’ll give it a 5. [/QUOTE] the song is interesting but it's too much verbose. The beginning is almost irritating in its slowness and repetitiveness. And basically they are only percussive noises. For the first few minutes I would have given a 5. Then luckily the music arrives, it develops in a minimalist but titanic way, and slowly it becomes more and more interesting, only to prolong too much. I would say there are 5 minutes too long. Rating 7. And now Steve Wynn |

You both posted at the same time! 8 for this one, it was nice and creepy with a bit of extra power from the monotonous drum and bass lines. |

Thank you very much for this piece by Eiliff. I didnt know this group. And I like this song. Very much. I'd have preferred if in the ending the singing was returned, but anyway, very good, score 8,5. And now, one of my fave song by Nick Cave: Oh My Lord. |

Anyway I'm already familiar with this Eiliff-tune and the whole album. Pretty great. Had forgotten how entertaining it is. Kind of an infectious groove. 7/10 I think. Or maybe another 8/10. Umberto: sound-wizardly Fabio Frizzi-like horror-stuff. Proggy enough I think |

This sounded like the background music in one of the more up to date Mediterranean restaurants and I could imagine it being quite popular. It was well put together and the techno bits towards the end gave it a bit more variety. 7/10. I found Egisto Macchi a little arduous too but liked the erratic percussion. Perhaps I should post some actual prog rock before anyone gets put off the thread . |

Very ardous. Cacophony, avant-guarde. But original, deep. 8/10 And now Mau Mau: Venus Nabalera. Genre: ethnic patchanka. (language: an italian dialect, French) Edited by jamesbaldwin - April 14 2019 at 16:11 |

8/10 I think. I've only heard it once so it might grow on me to become a more of a favorite. The dense atmosphere and eerie sort of floating orchestral soundwaves just works for me. I think you'd love Giacinto Scelsi (try Anahit, Aion, Pfhat, Uaxuctum or Konx-Om-Pax... if you're interested - dont you just love the titles?), but I'd like to post another favorite and a thing of terrible "Pendereckian" beauty instead: |
