CONTRADICTION (HOT INSTRUMENTAL ALBUM)
ROCK INST. (GUITAR)A new USA instrumental trio featuring electric guitar, electric bass and drums, and it’s a debut album of wicked axe work and strong rhythm section cohesion. This group is right there up with Cuneiform label’s Hosemobile & Djam Karet when it comes to scorching tracks that motor and drive. 8 driving tracks that featuring guitar work that just flies out in blistering fashion, worthy of heavy King Crimson at its most bone crunching. It’s a (near) hour-long combination of complexities and direct action, and from start to finish this is a band on top form and blazing a path to the stars with guitar music that’s nothing short of riveting.
These tracks run between three and thirteen minutes a piece, and the opener, (‘Ladder’) at nearly eight minutes long, sets the scene to perfection with all the elements there in force, from chugging electric bass through tight and strong drum work while the guitar soars and dives, solos and layers - A mighty, mighty track that takes no prisoners, yet it has a warm melodic heart – Yes, there is a tune that runs through the middle, while all around burns like a brush-fire. Track 2 (‘Side Walk’) takes the intensity down a notch or two, while the third (‘Burning Cylinders In A Freefall’) practically triples it with a rock-fusion hybrid that will leave you breathless in its wake. The ten minute 4th track (‘Rotary’) starts as a maze of twisting time changes and complex chording, before it hits a riff and hammers home in a slower and more deliberate manner, but only briefly as the track switches pace and scope once again. The remaining 4 tracks (‘Polytrip’ / ‘Lost In Disguise’ / ‘Yes, It’s Kind Of An Oxymoron’ / ‘Earthquake’) all follow a similar musical trail, combining complexities and direct action, with molten hot guitars scorching over a power-packed rhythm section. A quite superb from start to finish!
