Avant Garden - Maelstrom (2001)

The one and only album from this band from USA.

The band was a quartet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars, saxophones, flute and ebow.

They had some support from guests who provided didgeridoo, percussion and loops.

The music on this album hit like a bit of a bolt in my head....

We are talking heavy fusion here with some hard rock, folk rock and progressive rock influences.

There is a lot of flute, saxophones and guitars on this album.

The music changes between pastoral, intense and heavy throughout this one hour album.

There is some hidden gems in this scene. Hidden gems I love to find.

This album is a hidden gem and a very good album too. My only gripe is a missing killer track or killer detail. Besides of that........ check out this album.

3.5 points
