Well, I AM a crazy proghead. I like dinosaur progressive rock, progressive metal, neo progressive, jazz, heavy metal, experimental music, RIO and others.

Some interesting progressive albums.


EUROPIAN PROG / AVANT-GARDE / ZEUHL / RIO


Ragnarok - Well (Sweden)
Slask Records 1991

I have heard this band by name a long time ago and I was so curious how they sound. This is a Swedish prog/folk/new age band. Kinda mellow and sweet. Nothing changes much.


  

Wok In Time . Mpeg 3 (760 k)

Well. Mpeg 3 (856 k)


Magma - Simples (France)
Seventh Records 1998

Magma is a bazarre French progressive rock / fusion band. Magma's music is called "Zeuhl" (Celestial music). Christian Vander, the drummer, created the new language called "Kobaia". Magma's music is difficult to get into at the first time but it will grow on you.


This should be an EP or a mini album of previous 3 single vinyl albums.
- Makanik Machine 1974
- Makanik Kommando/Klaus Kombalad 1972
- Tendei Kobah 1971

It's a must I think. The music is really good for those who love Kobaian chanting. Klaus Blasquiz chants all songs in this album.

Hamtaak . Mpeg 3 (2, 168 k)

Makanik Machine . Mpeg 3 (1, 405 k)


Magma - Inedits (France)
Seventh Records 1996

This is live materials from the show in Paris 1997. All songs are from different albums. It's good that Seventh records releases some old materials of Magma in the 70's, my favourite era


  

KMX - B XII - Opus 7 . Mpeg 3 (1, 086 k)

Gamma . Mpeg 3 (735 k)


JAPANESE PROG / AVANT-GARDE / FUSION


Bi Kyo Ran - Bi Kyo Ran (Japan)
Licence King Records 1982

Wow! This is a really cool Japanese band. They are some sort of avant rock/RIO. Sound a lot like King Crimson in Red era but sing in Japanese. I have been playing this cd since I bought it. Listening to it everyday though. I am hoping to find their other albums soon.
