Cuprum biography
The members of Czech band CUPRUM have cooperated infrequently since 2004, but it wasn't until 2007 that they decided to take this one step further and become a band unit. Initially consisting of Richard Malát (vocals, flute), Vladimír Po?vic (vocals, guitars), Jan Drchal (guitars), ?těpán Vodenka (Hammond, Moog, keyboards), Tomas Skrivanek (bass) and Jan Je?ek (drums), Cuprum soon hit the recording studio, with the release of a three track EP as the end result.

In 2010 they decided that it was time to record their official debut album. As bassist Skrivanek left the band at that point they were unable to complete the recording sessions there and then, but with the addition of new bass man Jaromír Hynek in 2011 the missing parts could finally be recorded. Mix and production followed, and the end result was released in 2011 as Musica Deposita, followed by a string of concerts in their local scene promoting the CD.

Review by Mellotron Storm
Prog Reviewer

3 stars CUPRUM are a new band out of the Czech Republic. Vocals are in their own native language and while they are okay they aren't exactly a plus for me.

"Manyrista" is a catchy and dynamic track with vocals. Some nice organ 1 1/2 minutes in when the vocals stop. Piano follows then guitar, then flute as each seems to get a chance in the spotlight. Vocals are back later. "Opice V Kremu" has vocals, organ and drums standing out early. Flute before 1 1/2 minutes followed by a guitar solo. Vocal melodies a minute later. Vocals are back late. "Ocelot" is a short but good instrumental with prominant organ. "Mors Principum Est" opens with acoustic guitar as bass, organ and drums join in. Reserved vocals after a minute. Vocal melodies after 3 1/2 minutes then the organ leads. Vocals are back before 5 1/2 minutes followed by the guitar. "Nautilus" is a short piece with atmosphere and floating organ.

"Labe 02 (Frag. III)" opens with acoustic guitar then it kicks in around a minute with guitar out front. It settles back as the organ floats in the background. The guitar after 4 minutes cries out. It's building. "Lenokracie" is upbeat with vocals. A calm with piano, bass and drums 2 minutes in then it kicks back in after 3 1/2 minutes. "Kolik Das" is fairly heavy with vocals. Nice organ before 2 minutes and i like the guitar late to end it as well. "Dubcek Funky" is fun as he rhymes the lines like a rhymer not a nickel and dimer. We get a drum solo around 4 minutes. "Zdi Narku" is drum led and uptempo. Flute to the fore 2 minutes in and guitar a minute later. It blends into "Exploze". Guitar and flute trade off 1 1/2 minutes in then the organ returns with some heaviness. The guitar is back before 3 1/2 minutes then organ.

A good album but nothing more in my world.
