"Taste is not debatable" and not everyone likes pizza! Even delicious pizza!

I personally found the music thrilling and well played. I was shocked that the reviewer felt that they were weak musicians! Really? Weak? I dunno about that, it seems a little cruel but to each his own. 
I see their music as excellent groove prog.
I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

I don't want to criticise the review or the reviewer. It's a coincidence that Perigeo is the last review (4 stars) that I have written and I was listening to it again when I've seen it.

It's just an opportunity to post the album and discuss about an obscure new band.
What I don't understand is how tracks with signatures of that kind can sound "improvised".

By coincidence, reading a 1 star review of this album that I have loved since the first listen (I have suggested the band for inclusion) has made me the same effect that somebody has felt about GG.

This is the review

This is the album

And this is the sample
