Artist Information Instrumentation Agustin Criollo - Bass guitar, Vocals, Synth, Guitars Georgie Castro- Guitars, Alto Sax Fernando Rosado - Drums Andres Lugo - Prepared guitars, percussion, synth. Biography Formed in summer 2004 by 4 veterans of the local experimental music scene:Astrid Proll adds up to the new local avant-garde musical movement with a challenging and broad sound. The innevitable conclusion of more than 15 years of musical career. Agustin "Chito" Criollo on Bass guitar, Synths and Vocals; Georgie Castro-Ramirez on Guitars and Alto Sax; Andres Lugo on Synths, Prepared Guitars and Percussion and Fernando Rosado on Drums and Percussion compose this already infamous quartet of Experiemental Prog-Psyche Rock band. It is intended that Astrid Pröll's musical proposal, at times chaotic at times apocalyptic, mirrors the social and political reality that surrounds it. Their debut CD, released on the local indie label Noisex Records, depicts the cornerstone of all future AP's recordings blending some of the most visible influences of tha band together in a "Hallucinating Journey of Epic Proportions through Frenetic Rythms and Blissfull Noise..." This is only the beginning of a new cicle for these not-so-new performers from the local scene. An innevitable evolution towards a musical territory much more faithful to their music's reality. The developing of a work space that will be able to integrate the artist and his endevour. Be that as it may, we will always know it as Astrid Pröll.

I'm waiting on this to arrive, but judging by the 4 tracks I've heard, they definitely deserve to be added here. Great stuff and a very promising band indeed. -------------

Sorry to bump this, but they seriously needed to be added! They're prog in every way. I'll let Chamberry upload some tracks, as it seems they've removed their tracks from MySpace... or maybe I just didn't see them due to some issue... but yes, add them!

I offered to take the press kit with CD & review it (after they've been added) ....  Based on what I've heard, they should be right up my alley. -------------
