Macroscream - Macrophonix (2024)

The third album from this band from Italy.

The band is a quintet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, keyboards and vocals.

I have reviewed their first two albums in # 1 of this blog and I liked both albums. Solid to very good modern RPI.

The band has always been somewhere between art-rock, neo-prog and RPI in their music. That also goes for this fifty minutes long album.

The sound is contemporary and the vocals are in English. I would prefer Italian vocals, though.... 

The music has some jazzy edges in some of the pieces of music here. The vocals is good and the music is both mid-tempo and elegant. The keyboards has a vintage organ sound. There is some pretty strong early Marillion influences in some of the pieces of music here.

The result is a good album from a band I really like. This is one of the better modern RPI bands these days.
