Sanguine Hum - The Weight Of The World (2013)

The second album from this band from England.

The band was a quartet with a lineup of drums, percussion, bass, guitars, synths, electronics, organs and vocals.

The second album from this act who grew out of the cult band Antique Seeking Nuns. 

Their debut album refined and built on the Canterbury scene sound Antique Seeking Nuns did. 

The music Sanguine Hum is doing is Canterbury scene influenced neo-prog. Heavy Canterbury scene influenced neo-prog, I would add.

There is a lot of playful fusion in the bottom of this music. National Health springs to mind. Add Hatfield & The North and Egg too.

The vocals is really good and the music is really playful, flying pretty close to Canterbury scene fusion as it is.

The result is a very good albm indeed. All three quarters of an hour of it. The band has most certainly got my attention with this album.

More reviews of their albums will follow next month.

3.5 points
