Creedle - When the Wind Blows

Cover art

Creedle is a band that has come a long way. Their debut recording in the early 90s (Half Man, Half Pie) established them as an alternative punk band with a serious musical outlook....

Cro Magnon - Bull?

Cover art

It's been a few seasons since Cro Magnon's debut CD Zapp! This long-awaited follow-up picks up where the first left off, but adds a bit more variety and electricity to the mix. The...

Culto sin Nombre - Hallazgos Nerviosos

Cover art

Like dark? Here's dark. Anyone remember a Mexican mid-80s group called Nazca? They had a couple of very Stravinsky influenced chamber-rock albums and then disappeared nearly without trace....

Datetenryu - 1971

Cover art

Here's something you definitely won't hear every day! Rare archival recordings from a little-known Japanese power-trio from the early 70s (as the title may have clued you in). Although the...

David Tudor - Microphone

Cover art

In 1973 longtime John Cage associate David Tudor recorded the two pieces on this album, which could best be described as ambient sonic experimentation. Low register audio outbursts of varying tone...

Divæ - Determinazione

Cover art

Considering that the band has been around since the late 70s and this is their debut album, Determinazione is an apt title! Over the last few years, Divæ has played several live...

Doctor Nerve - Every Screaming Ear

Cover art

Guitarist / bandleader Nick Didkovsky's latest Dr. Nerve offering is something of a live retrospective of the band's various musical personalities. While many of the tracks on Every...

Dracma - A Fine Stormy Weather

Cover art

The second album by Dracma is a fairly straightforward neo-progressive symphonic release along the lines of bands like Cast, Pendragon, or Marillion. There a lots of alternating soft and loud...

Dream Child - Torn Between Two Worlds

Cover art

Dream Child would be a good progressive metal band if they had any progressive leanings. However, they seem quite content playing 240 bpm, wall of guitar and double bass drum, straight beat 4/4...

Ella Guru - Morbius

Cover art

Ella Guru is an Italian octet consisting of guitar, alto sax, trombone, bass, keyboards, and three (count 'em) drummers. They follow the Rock-in-Opposition (aka RIO) path pretty closely, and...

Enchant - Wounded

Cover art

Erratica - Erratica

Cover art

Erratica is essentially the solo project of multi-instrumentalist David O'Neil, one third of San Jose trio Industrial Soup. Much of the madness of that band's Flagrant Display of...

Escapade - Searching for the Elusive Rainbow

Cover art

One wouldn't think that music this trippy could come from the USA in the 90s; indeed, the references in Escapade's music go back to the experimental Krautrock of the earliest 70s —...

Fermáta - Huascaran

Cover art

This Czech fusion group is one of the classics from the Eastern bloc, and this, their third album, is their second best in my opinion. This is a great mix of progressive and fusion, four long...

Fiaba - Il Cappello a Tre Punte

Cover art

Imagine "The Farmer in the Dell" transposed to a minor key, sung by a slightly crazed Italian operatic tenor, and played in the style of Metallica, and you have a pretty good idea of what...

Ganelin / Tarasov / Chekasin - Concerto Grosso

Cover art

My first impression of this Russian trio's single, long improvisation (nearly thirty-five minutes) was that this was some vile attempt to do an Irish jig, using recorders and ocarina to begin...

Gary Windo - His Master's Bones

Cover art

60s jazz icon Gary Windo was a member of both the US and UK jazz scenes. This compilation of the tenor sax player's activities, produced by noted Canterbury musicologist Mike King, is a loving...
