ZOPP

This album is definitely the best of the year so far. Zopp has managed to create an exceptional work of Canterbury rock, full of inventiveness, energy and warm melodies that perfectly could have been composed back in the 70s. Among the main influences, hints of Caravan, Hatfield, National Health, Khan and Mainstream can be heard, but this album does not try to replicate those sounds, in fact it still feels fresh and original.

01. Swedish Love - 7.5/10 02. Before The Light - 9/10 03. Eternal Return - 9.5/10 04. Sanger - 8/10 05. Sellanra - 7.5/10 06. V - 9.5/10 07. Being And Time - 8/10 08. Zero - 8/10 09. The Noble Shirker - 9.5/10

Four solid stars. Highly recommended to all fans of Canterbury scene and challenging progressive rock.
