Hexatonica – El Visionario (2012)

Published on the Musea Parallèle label in 2012, “El Visionario” is the third rendition by the band, second one recorded in a studio. Despite the presence of two guitarists, Abel VALENTE and Carlos CATTANEO, and the upbeats and polyrhythmics of Juan GASCO and Sergio TOPHAM in drums and bass, and not to mention an obvious taste for heavy-metal, the music played by the fivesome has unquestionably a symphonic flavor, which leaves plenty of room for keyboards (Nahuel ACOSTA), and melody. With eight tracks composed by drummer and producer Juan GASCO, and one by former keyboard player Diego Yanivello, this album lies at the crossroads between LIQUID TENSION EXPERIMENT, PINK FLOYD and EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER, and OPETH. In the end, the listener might even find some resemblances with Jaime ROSAS, or even the compatriots of NEXUS. Nine tracks performed with great mastery, that should bring the Prog(d)heads out there back to life!

Mongrel – Reclamation 2012

 

NOW!NOT REAL WAR…

On the album the band went through “a living hell” – said the leader of the team, Adam Savage. “It took four years, five line-up changes, two studios, two labels, and countless hours of work and here it finally comes out!”

During recording, the tension between the parties came to a head, and in the end it was decided to leave the vocalist and drummer. In place of the latter was quickly found Dave Kazukiewicz, but with a singer … “We have found the singer, but quickly stepped life circumstances and everything will have changed” – says Savage. “Then I asked my friend, Jessica’y Sierra come with us on a few shows.”

Following the presentations, Jessica became a regular participant Mongrel, and the group returned to the studio to re-record all of the material from scratch.
