47th Art Rock Show: Metamorphosis

Deze week stellen we Axon-Neuron aan u voor, een 6-koppige band Akron, Ohio. De band speelt een mix van progressieve rock, metal, jazz en klassiek met lyrische melodieën, weelderige harmonieën en compacte orkestratie.

Prog Archives review: “Wow! After just listening to latest, very disappointing Pineapple Thief’s effort. This is a wonderful return to real progressive rock. I agree with my fellow reviewer, this 3rd album by Axon-Neouron is a masterpiece! The overwhelming wash of melody, musicianship and incredible composition is stunning. In my opinion this material is more in the ‘Canterbury’ genre with vocals and arrangements that carry on the fine tradition of Hatfield and the North and National Health. There is also a strong undercurrent of Gentle Giant eclectic ideas and arrangement.

There is a lot in common with recent albums by the equally inventive and incredibly talented Thieves Kitchen. I will leave it to my other learned reviews to breakdown the individual tracks, but for those interested in new and incredibly inventive progressive rock/jazz/fusion/RIO this album is for you, do not delay in purchasing this wonderful album, you will not regret it. Axon-Neuton will delight and restore anyone’s confidence that while some bands look to more commercial and/or ‘metal’ pastures, others, like the brilliant Axon-Neuron are still providing us with wonderful, exciting progressive rock (in the true sense of the word).”

Naast Axon-Neuron met het album Metamorphosis hebben we deze week: Birds and Buildings (Multipurpose Trap), The Decemberists (The Hazards of Love), Ciccada (A Child In The Mirror) and I Am the Manic Whale (Everything Beautiful in Time).
