Progressive rock, also known as prog rock or prog, is a rock music subgenre that originated in the United Kingdom, with further developments in Germany, Italy, and France, throughout the mid-to-late 1960s and 1970s. It developed from psychedelic rock and originated, similarly to art rock, as an attempt to give greater artistic weight and credibility to rock music.
Salma Gandhi – The Quest For Nonsense Never Ends 2012
now!
From the folks at Transubstans Records/Record Heaven comes the Swedish instrumental band called Salma Gandhi. Not content to swim in the retro hard rock, metal, and doom waters that so many other acts from Sweden seem to be doing these days, the oddly named Salma Gandhi instead have created quirky intrumental pieces that touch on jazz, pop, prog, blues, punk, and stoner elements.
Many of the tracks here are fun to listen to, and have a unique sound, especially “Mulholland Mustard In The Custard”, “Paranoid Cow On A Mushroom Lawn” (love these songs titles!), and the epic post-rock/psychedelia of “Santa Da Luna Pa Ruskie”. The dark & spooky “Dr. Steveroll I Presume” has a spacey, jazzy, psychedelic feel to it that is quite appealing, but you are almost left waiting for the band to really break out with something earthshattering, which they rarely do.
Intuition – A Season To Rock 2012
now!Hollidays..!!!
Fresh off his acclaimed solo CD Tapestry Of Souls (Shredguy Records), guitarist CHRIS BICKLEY joins up with INTUITION to create the Christmas CD A Season To Rock.
According to a press release, Intuition is a band formed by an international collection of musicians who spent the last year writing, arranging, and recording a new concept Christmas CD. The idea was to put together a collection of well known Christmas tunes without simply re-recording the original. In this project the band reworked the songs with extended intros, solo sections, and interesting arrangements, while trying to maintain a heavy rock style.
