THE NECK PILLOW

"The Neck Pillow" was the second album release by this German experimental prog rock band who wrote here a real gem of an album. With 2 epic tracks titled "Bed Sausage part 1 and part 2" what else can you say? Hard to exactly peg this album musically but I would suggest a pretty clean split of UK's "Arena" with Italy's "La Maschera Di Cera". Musically these guys blend symphonic keyboards with heavy grooved guitar and bass riffs and beats creating a strong and energetic vibe throughout. The music of INQUIRE is always intriguing and shifting and offers many surprises along the way. Instrumentally this band is amazing offering some pretty courageous yet well constructed and highly original music. "The Neck Pillow" also contains an excerpt from Grieg's Peer Gynt Suite ! INQUIRE would have to be one of the freshest progressive bands to have come out of Germany in some time. Highly recommended !
