Pinnick Gales Pridgen
Pinnick Gales Pridgen
Review by Gary Hill
I had assumed based on this being on Magna Carta that it would be progressive rock. I wouldn’t really call it “prog,” though. I would call it great. Of course, when you are talking about the three guys that make up this band, that makes sense. The Pinnick is, of course dUg Pinnick of King’s X fame. Eric Gales is best known for his own band, but he’s played with lots of other people. Thomas Pridgen was formerly in Mars Volta. Overall, I’d consider this to really be a modern power trio. It has elements of The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Cream and Rush. Add in some King’s X and the sound is pretty well laid out here. It’s all awesome, though. This comes highly recommended as fresh and fun. In short, it rocks!
