The debut album from this band from USA.
The band is a sextet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, woodwinds, viola, violin, guitars, melodica, accordion, keyboards, programming, grand piano, cello and vocals.
They had contributions from numerous friends who added violin, cello, woodwinds, vibraphone, vocals, drums, keyboards, synths and vocals.
This band is a kind of a super group with members from Umlaut, Estradasphere and Mr Bungle.
This album contains fifty minutes of eclectic prog/avant garde prog ranging from extreme metal to Eastern European folk music, classical music, jazz, gypsy music, cinematic music in the vein of Goblin and surf rock.
The music kicks in all direction and there is some sort of methods in this madness. And madness, it is.
Maybe too much madness for one album. But avant-garde/RIO fans will love this album.... I guess.
I am not won over. Nevertheless, there are some good stuff here and some decent stuff.
Check out this album if avant-garde prog is your thing.
