DANCES ON GOBELINS

Ooooh, great , there are three suggestion already and all rated by 5 Stars, BY 5 STARS. Yes, I guess, this band counts exactly 3 members, so the conclusion is not a very difficult to make up after you have listen to this tedious, disgusting and miserable album.

I would like to give it zero stars, but unfortunately I couldn't find the option how to do that. All numbers are absolutely similar to each other, no solos, the drum sounds like a electric synthesizer, there are no guitars (no electric as well as no acoustic, only Bass), no wind instruments.

Anyway, I would like to recommend this record to all Progheads, because I think all we should to know how the Progressive Rock music must not sound like!!!

Paraphrasing Vasil Jalabadze, any prog head should listen to X Religion to realize that the release of their second album back in 2003 was a major event. This is one of the deepest and, simultaneously, most beautiful prog rock albums I've ever heard, a real feast for the adventurous, with ever-changing music covering a wide variety of different progressive directions: from symphonic Prog to classical music and Avant-garde. A must. By the way, the album received very favorable reviews in most prog rock and related resources on the Internet and beyond:-)!

Wow. Two wordy reviews, one is 1 star and another is 5 stars. I'll be closer to second one with my 4 stars.

First of all, if you can't bear electronic drums, stay away. The whole album is recorded on electronic Yamaha drumkit, so you may guess how drums sound like.That's , probably, the only flaw here - besides, I CAN understand pecularities of Uzbekistan Prog scene and overall "flat" sound of the album doesn't frighten me much, because the music itself is very good. Heavily orchestrated and arranged, it sounds like ELP jamming with DT and MAHAVISHNU...If it'd be only better recorded, it'll recieve far more positive reviews I guess. Highly recommended despite these NON-MUSICAL problems. Check it out
