4 stars OGO DYS was the one-man freak orchestra of the Swedish based Magnus Lundberg who released his works through various monikers but none were so eclectic as this bizarre hybrid of prog, art rock, punk and a multitude of other genres under the sun. The year 2009 was particularly fruitful as Lundberg unleashed three of his eclectic releases, one EP titled "The One-Sided EP" and two full-length albums which included "Overion-3" and this equally unorthodox presentation of "Iulpius Dyn" which was probably the most orthodox of the three different releases of that year.

This one consists of four tracks and is just shy of the 31 minute mark with the usual mix of avant-prog, jazz, punk and other forms of prog but this one was tamed down a bit and pacified with the zeuhl rhythms of Magma which keeps it percolating on a Teutonic march mode without extreme outbursts of tempo changes or time signature freak outs however there is still plenty of room to improvise and OGO DYS takes every opportunity to fill in the avant-garde in the nooks and crannies of the otherwise predictable procession into the progosphere.

"Unua Flora" sounds a million miles away from the anarchic beginnings of "Neptune Everywhere" as this one sounds like a "regular" prog band that engages in some sort of self-control. The just over ten minute track may not be all over the map but still engages in tempo changes ranging from psychedelic atmospheric segments to jittery quickened thump-fests. "Transiro" begins with an avant-piano run followed by an avant-bass groove that slowly builds up intensity like Magma's "Mekanïk Destruktïw Kommandöh" but just as it builds up it suddenly bursts into a psychedelic slow burner. Yeah the zeuhl rhythms are consistent but tempos are placed into packets rather than unpredictable zigzags. This one is particularly dark like Univers Zero's "Heresie."

"Danse Horara" follows suit with avant-prog piano based angularities that implement contrapuntal flute runs with outbursts of guitar stomp driven faster tempos. Somewhat like Univers Zero only fortified with extreme Zappa flavors that exercise the most ridiculously complex instrumental antics, this one, despite the title would be a nightmare for dancers indeed unless they were seven-legged frogs having licked themselves on a full moon of course. "La Profetaj Vizioj" takes on a new weirdness with a jittery frightful guitar dueling action with some sort of chimes and then commences to engage in some seriously challenging prog workouts with guitars, bass, drums and keyboards creating some of the most avant-prog antics on the entire album. Think of a more demanding version of Univers Zero with zeuhl rhythms and then you're on the right track.

By prog standards, IULPIUS DYN is probably the most accessible album under the OGO DYS moniker as it articulates prog standards albeit at their most extreme. For fans of incessantly brutal avant-prog workouts, this is right up your alley however for the feint of heart, this will be prog overload as it is unrelenting in frenetic time signature deliveries and bizarrely juxtaposed contrapuntal elements but the zeuhl rhythmic drive keeps this somewhat accessible assuming you're well versed in the avant-prog heavyweights such as Univers Zero, Art Zoyd, Frank Zappa, Present and even Yugen. This is some challenging stuff but highly rewarding for those seeking exciting extremes in the world of brutal prog madness.
