Being a band of only two members, the Canadians "Space Kitchen" are nevertheless skilled enough to cover all the
musical edges of their debut; fresh airs that blow firmly and without excessive frills, with vocal reminiscences of Jeff
Lynne's Electric Light Orchestra, round off their homonymous EP.Starting with a couple of straightforward tracks of frugal digestion, such as the easygoing "The Arribal" and the resigned return of the protagonist of the story to his family home, including the reunion with Kipp, the pet canine, and the broken "I Love You Baby", Space Kitchen exhibits enormous potential; as evidenced by the powerful "Moving Picture", a sequence of elaborate developments with Rob Howell's keyboards setting the pace and a dramatic, choked guitar solo by Robbie Carvalho, which would have deserved to be extended a few more instrumental passages given its solid construction, as well as the doubled and metaphorical "Sun Tower", rounded off with some nods that remind us at times of their legendary compatriots Rush from the second stage. And to ratify the concept, the dense and strange "Pain Goblin" and its hypnotic mid-tempo adorned by a very nice guitar solo by Carvalho, closes the more than interesting debut of the Canadians. It's worth keeping an eye on them. 3/3.5 stars
