THE MAGISTER

Israeli band STEIN is the creative vehicle of composer and musician Tal Rubinstein. Following several years of preparations and recordings, they self-released their debut album at the start of 2016.

Stein isn't a band that have been hitting any headlines I've seen, which is just too bad. While this is a kind of album that may well have a limited audience, those who know and treasure instrumental progressive rock of the kind that Camel used to create should have a field day with this album. As long as one can cope with a band of this kind also incorporating elements of progressive metal into some compositions and passages here and there.
