Review
I'm
still deciding if I actually understand this album. As it's a very
hard album to listen to. Even after multiple
listens, I'm still trying to find an emotional connection with the
record. Aspid Orkesträ - 7 horizontes is one epic 40 minute song
that incorporates elements of Jazz, Psych, Space Rock and Stoner Rock
for one truly one mind-expanding ride.
The
album starts slowly with the band playing a wide range of psychedelic
sounds that have a hint of Oriental/Drone style rhythms being added
at different times. I cannot really fault the instrumental work as
all the band members make their presence known. The band feel they
take influence from bands such as Hawkwind, Blown Out and even
Monster Magnet (TAB era).
There
are some fantastic heavy moments that instantly draw you into the
experimental nature of the album. Though this only lasts a few
moments as the band change the overall tone and direction of the
album that could make the listener lose interest. It's not a bad
record at all. Far from it. It's a very good album indeed. This album
is perhaps more suited to the more experienced and committed
Psychedelic Rock fan.
If
you're looking for something different and more experimental then
Aspid Orkesträ - 7 horizontes could be the album for you.
