my God, listen to this superb disk and tell me if it is a wonder. Marsbéli Krónikák ("Martian Chronicles") is the debut of the Hungarian Solaris, a waste of good taste from the eastern European lovers Symphonic Progressive Rock will know to appreciate.
sometimes quiet, sometimes aggressive, and always sublime. Today is one of the most significant albums of the genre, however, it was not until '95 when Solaris Progfest achieved worldwide fame that they deserved (even though they were well known in Hungary).
CONCIERTO EN LA SALA OTTO (GIJÓN) - Lujuria (2010)
Music Library Special Edition MUST . On the occasion of the concert that gave yesterday Lust November 20 in Gijon Otto room, writing this humble review on this humble blog to the delight of those who want to read it.
Three years after the last visit Lust (in the Rock Spill 2007), the expectation was notable among the followers of the band Segovia Asturias. The concert was scheduled for 12 pm, so the queue to enter the room Otto was already considerable at 11 and a half. However, 12 was the time the doors were opened, postponed half hour concert, something that no one paid attention: were there to enjoy the good Hard Rock that Lust he usually does, and we knew he would not disappoint. We take then that half an hour to go asking for a beer. The "lust" did not wait, had not yet begun because the concert when a friendly waitress had anal sex with me (I like taxpayer) to charge me € 3.50 for a Mahou. Would have to drink it slowly.
At 12 and a half with English punctuality tore the concert. The voice-over Oscar completely captured our attention from the first second, Cisco in the Pope and the entire Catholic Church, and immediately the whole band broke with the strength of This is a night of Rock And Roll , Barricada version in memory of Mike Astrain including on his latest album, Eternal Flame , and had the audience in his pocket. From here I do not remember the order of songs, and insurance that if I do I forget to count some, but what is clear is that for an hour and 45 minutes, the audience enjoyed authentic and upper Rock and happened to tell (messy, probably) the most notable moments of the night, which are not few.
always with humor and, above all, with the truth in front, Oscar presented each of the songs along with protest messages, along with anecdotes and tributes, or with his personal vision of diverse topics that generally, all those present shared (if anything characterizes Lust is his absolute transparency ideological .) Thus, the song falls Mask (played in a bestial) was presented with a message for the Saharawi people and against Trinidad Jiménez for their hypocrisy. Likewise, the song Let the children come to me , in addition to explicit charges against pedophilia (particularly exercised by the Catholic Church) that is, was the answer to Curri Valenzuela and his cronies for their stupid rating of the group (stating that I very much like to have a space on TV as TeleMadrid, where people with cognitive delay can "work" but they should stop calling themselves "journalists", and should not be considered a "news" to the stupid things these apologists say foolishness). The Heavy Violence Not and Estrella Del Rock were emotional tributes to Bruque and Pedro Javier Gálvez respectively, and La Gorda (not expected to be playing this hilarious song of his early years) was made by the hilarious story about the daughter of loose morals of a Commissioner. Special mention should also Goliardos , because here Oscar , without thinking twice, mixed with his audience and took photos with who wanted while singing (these are the advantages of wireless microphone). There was no shortage, of course, the classics of the band that the audience without exception were encouraged to sing La Favorita Del Rey, Porn Star (with much humor and a bit of bad blood dedicated to Victor Garcia WarCry of ), Jekyll & Mrs. Hyde , And a beautiful song on your album conceptual ... and tinder will burn called traitors and criminals Against Us Batallan , to end Worth, Heart Of Heavy Metal and more dedicated to the final apotheosis great among the greats of heavy metal, Ronnie James Dio : Long Live Rock 'n' Roll Rainbow of , played dramatically.
interpretive level, Lust were 100% throughout the concert, giving it everything all the time and giving your audience unconditionally. It seems incredible that a group devoted as lust, with almost 20 years behind him, continues to project the same enthusiasm that the first days and still enjoy the small stage at the foot of the public after being played in the largest.
That closeness and humility are, in addition to his loyalty to his ideas and his audience, what makes a band Lust Rock authentic authentic. Perhaps the only real band that stays in Spain, with emphasis on the Heavy Metal is not about technique, but in your heart.
PD: Sorry about the picture, but was taken by a crappy photographer (server) with a crappy phone mobile. Deputy live video of the song Heart Of Heavy Metal that, although not corresponding to the concert yesterday in Gijón, a good reflection of the strength of Lust live.
PPS: If I have made improper use of any materials presented here, I beg you communicate and immediately be corrected.
Twenty years after the mediocre Focus With Proby, and seventeen after meeting Akkerman and Van Leer , resurgent Focus from its ashes in a surprising way Focus 8 (although we never Akkerman in their ranks, who was replaced by Jan Dume ). It is a good attempt to return to the roots, alternating with its unmistakable character symphonic jazz rhythms.
certainly a pleasant surprise for those who no longer knew what to expect from Focus after so long.
has cost me, I will not deny it, but I must admit that the Neo-Prog has great jobs to offer. Script For A Jester 's Tear is one of them, though Marillion , in my opinion, have had few glorious moments.
must say that this great debut owes much to the most fruitful period Genesis, which is seen in its dark themes, symphonic and complex, and in his lyrics and bombastic scholar and the undeniable resemblance between Fish voice and that of Peter Gabriel (seems even want to imitate.) However, the originality of the topics is astounding, and today Script For A Jester's Tear and is one among the classics.
If you've been disappointed with the turn gave progressive rock in the 80s, do not tire of hearing this wonder. Maybe you restore hope in the Neo-Prog. At least I'm going to give it a try.
