Cuprum - Brahma Visnu Siva (2014)

The second album from this band from the Czech Republic.

The band was a sextet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, organ, keyboards, flute and vocals.

I very much liked their 2011 debut album Musica Deposita. Good mix of melody and quirky stuff.

The band returns again with a mix of folk rock, Canterbury scene, fusion and eclectic heavy progressive rock. 

The vocals are in the local language and they are good. I do not understand them but they are very suitable for the music.

The music is a bit less playful and a bit more melodic this time around. It is a lot more commercial too. 

There is a lot of very good flute and organ on this album. The sound is the 1970s progressive rock sound. There is a lot of Jethro Tull and Ian Anderson in this album, indeed.

The result is another very good album from this band. A band I hope has not split up.... but I believe they have done that. Their two albums is well worth checking out.

3.5 points
