ONE BRIGHT MIDNIGHT

UK band CROOKED MOUTH is led by composer and musician Ken Campbell, and is a venture that has been in existence in multiple forms ever since 2001 and with three full length albums to their name so far. "One Bright Midnight" is the most recent of these, and was released through the presumed private label Moon Brother Music at the start of 2015.

A fairly light and elegant variety of progressive rock that is paired off with harder edged sequences and occasionally full songs taking on this firmer sound as well are the key aspects of this album as I experience it. Those fond of neo-progressive rock taking on an occasional harder edged sound appears as something of a key audience for this production, and then especially those who also favor occasional servings of quirkier progressive rock with more of an art rock spirit as an ongoing feature. A production with something of a niche appeal, as I regard it, and one that will most likely be cherished by those in this specific niche.
