MIND FURNITURE - CD HOOP OF FLAME

Popis - HOOP OF FLAME:
This American band, with its second album, "plays thoughtful rock with a furnished feel" -so they say. "Hoop of flame" is made of two long musical suites (23 and 29 minutes). MIND FURNITUREs musical identity is personal, even if it recalls seventies bands like KANSAS, JETHRO TULL, RUSH, STYX and neo-progressive music, especially MARILLION for the lyrical guitar solis. Its well structured (five parts for each suite), very diverse in the inspiration, with elaborate arrangements that keep very well the balance between keyboards and guitars. It combines philosophical and metaphysical lyrics with a dynamic feeling and positive vibrations. Lets mention nice vocal parts, sometimes near IAN ANDERSON, and beautiful, intense solos. Ambitious, and successful.
