TANGO

It's only a single, but it's enough to keep the pipe dream of new music from Gospel alive for over a decade now, because it's just so completely unlike anything else. "Screamo King Crimson" is what their debut is often described as, and this takes the prog half of their sound for a proper spin, hinting at some incredible middle ground between avant-prog mania and post-hardcore intensity. Even if that fabled sophomore never does arrive, this single at the least proves that the fusion can work, and perhaps lays the groundwork for some bold pioneers in the future.
