Hermetic Science - Deliria (2023)

 

The sixth album from this band from USA.

The band was a trio with a lineup of drums, bass and keyboards.

This trio has released some of the strangest albums I have ever reviewed. I am not sure if they are progressive rock at all. Well, they are not progressive rock. They are eclectic neo-classical music albums.

This album clocks in at just over forty minutes and we get a lot of ELP and Trace influenced music here. The Pink Mice should also be included here although their music were more cheesy and sunny than the music on this album.

The music on Deliria, which comes as nine different pieces in this suite, is pretty dark and brooding. 

Piano and keyboards is the main instrument here.

There is no denying that this music is not particular good. The music is too pedestrian. Nevertheless, the gloomy soundscape adds some quality to this half-decent music. 

I admire the band for their guts and original approach to their craft. This album is only a half-decent album though...
