Progressive Rock CD Reviews

Luna Kiss

E.P.

Review by Gary Hill

This is a band from England and based on these two songs, the only two they have recorded so far, they should have a great future. These two pieces showcase a sound that’s both unique and yet rooted in traditions of other musical styles. I really like this music a lot. I look forward to hearing more from Luna Kiss.

Track by Track Review
Silver Lines

There’s almost a classical music meets psychedelic texture to this as it rises up. As the actual music that makes up the more song part of the extended introduction gradually joins it has a texture that at times makes me think of Hawkwind, but at other points is more purely progressive rock and less the space rock end of the spectrum. There is an old school Pink Floyd element here, too. They take it out to a more stripped down arrangement that makes me think of a cross between Radiohead and Pink Floyd. They take it out into some different directions further down the musical road. It turns to a more hard rocking piece after that and again the Pink Floyd meets Radiohead concept is valid.

Stop this Behaviour
A slowly growing and evolving cut, this is moody and I love the emotion and feeling. It’s got a bit of a “mod” feel to it as far as I’m concerned, but it’s also very progressive rock oriented. It’s like you took the more psychedelic side of the old Who and blended a whole lot of progressive rock into the mix. It’s a killer piece of music. We get some killer instrumental extrapolations later down the road.
