It took a little extra time, but it looks like the next issue of Progression Magazine will be out shortly, including a review of Obscuros.
In other Disconnect news, we're about halfway through yet another album, which has taken the form of an album-length piece. We're only taking our time since our respective schedules don't allow us to work any faster. Still hoping to see more reviews of Radio Hostile and Obscuros here as well! |

Disconnect's "Obscuros" reviewed by Progression Magazine (Issue #61, April 2011):
----------------------------------- DISCONNECT Obscuros 2010 (CD, 65:18) Independent Release PROGRESSIVE ROCK Rating: 12 (out of 16) Disconnect comprises far-flung collaborators Brian Eschrich (New Jersey, USA) on drums/percussion/synths and Erich O'Dell (Maryland, USA) on guitars/bass/keyboards and voice. Obscuros, the duo's third album, carries a potpourri of proggy reference points -- Rush and melodic neoprogressive songcraft being the dominant elements, along with dashes of heavy post-progressive. The arrangements are meaty and varied; seven of these eight tracks are in the six- to eight-minute range, with mid-disc epic "What Else Is Left To Say?" clocking in just past 14 minutes. Lyrically, Disconnect invites contemplation of what appear to be multiple themes of "disconnect," both individually/internally, and in relationship. The track "K.G." represents a nod to the late Kevin Gilbert - "...Another in that line of those who left too soon." As duo efforts go this album features a full sound with O'Dell's expressive guitar/keyboard leads and voice setting the tone and Eschrich's drums/percussion/synth filss blending in organically and seamlessly. For two guys working hundreds of miles apart, that's an impressive bit of intuitive artistry. --JOHN COLLINGE, Progression Magazine ------------------------- |
