Cardiacs

RIO/Avant-Prog

From Progarchives.com, the ultimate progressive rock music website

Cardiacs are usually not considered as a real prog band, but this compilation of some of their earliest recordings proves that they once were very much prog. The influence of Yes, Zappa and Genesis cannot be overheard. Most songs are from the tapes Toy World and The Obvious Identity which, unfortunately are not represented here in their entirity and were never re-released either. Added were the two Piffols, demos from a project by Tim Smith and Dominic Luckman that have not been released earlier. There are a few more or less "punky" songs that prog die-hards might possibly not like, even though all of those show more inventiveness than you'd usually find in punk.
