UGISIUNSI

If your into Space Rock then QUANTUM FANTAY needs no introduction. This five piece from Belgium has released 8 studio albums since their debut in 2005. This is album number two from 2007 with the usual instruments except we do get one musician playing flute. The synth player adds vocoder(gag) and lets talk about the synths. Very light and often high pitched I think I have an allergy to his sound. It really is a negative for me but then so is that flute style.

I read someone who said these guys were OZRIC TENTACLES light and I have to agree and I think the Ozrics are already too light. My tastes love that upfront bass with growly and spacey synths, a great drummer and throw in some attitude please. This is so lightweight. Even the best track that 11 1/2 minute closer suffers at times but I do like that guitar and this one has it's moments for sure.

I should mention there's a world music vibe at times on this record. The band likes to refer to their music as being liquid, fair enough but lets have some waves crashing in or a current that causes some concern(haha). Okay enough bashing these guys are truly talented they just aren't anywhere close to being in my Space Rock wheelhouse.
