Нello All!

Залит PureReason_Revolution/(2020)Eupnea

Очень неплохая английская прогрессив-рок-группа.
Существовали с начала 2000-х, распались, собрались в 2019-м, выпустили на днях вот этот диск.
Играют современный нью-прог, можно назвать его "Пинк Флойд с женским вокалом", хотя вокал там больше дуэтом, чем чисто женский.
Весьма рекомендую!

Pure Reason Revolution biography
Founded in London, UK in 2003 - Disbanded in 2011

PURE REASON REVOLUTION is a British Rock group formed at Westminster University in 2003. Trying to fit PRR into a specific genre would be a difficult task, which is one of their attractive qualities. Space rock mingled with some modern-day rock, vocal harmonies and popish tunes together with heavy guitar riffs, catchy musical lines with more complex song structure. All of these exist in their music. As their official website states: "Their music incorporates elements of progressive rock and grunge rock, while its vocal harmonies are reminiscent of The Beach Boys. They have been variously described as 'Astral Folk' and 'New Prog'. Members have a shared appreciation for the work of bands such as Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins and the Super Furry Animals.

The roots of the band stretch back over a decade to when Reading based friends Chloe Alper (23) and John Courtney (25) paths crossed while playing in a succession of teeneage bands. They were children of the grunge generation. At university Jon met Greg Jong (vocals and guitar) who was later replaced by Jamie Wilcox and keyboard player Jim Dobson. Together with Chloe and Jon's brother Andrew on drums, Pure Reason Revolution was born.

In April 2004 Poptones released their debut single "Apprentice of the Universe" through Alan McGee's Poptones label. A year later came "The Bright Ambassadors of Morning", a more than 12 minutes epic, which received rave reviews. It was followed by "Cautionary Tales for the Brave", a 30 minutes mini album, released in October 2005 on the band's own Нolograph imprint, via Sony/BMG. April 2006 sees the release of their full length album "The Dark Third", through New York based Nu-Нaven Music, Via Columbia. It was produced by Paul Northfield (Rush, Porcupine Tree, Gentle Giant, Нole). According to Jon "it is a concept album that investigates the supposedly sharp boundary between dreaming & wakefulness.

Eupnea
Pure Reason Revolution
Crossover Prog, 2020
(c) Review by Deadwing, PA

EUPNEA is Pure Reason Revolution returning back to its roots. After a 10 years break, Chloe Alper and John Courtney new effort brings back the band to its trademark elements: Space Rock with great use of vocal harmonies, catchy choruses, grunge beats and heavy guitars. Fans of "The Dark Third" will be very pleased with EUPNEA , where most of the electronic elements from the later albums are gone and the songwriting couldn't be more proggy.

This is not, however, just a rehash from their first release. Eupnea is PRR at its best, their sound is a lot more mature, the songwriting is tighter and the instrumentation is much more refined. There's a bigger presence of keyboards and guitar solos and complex passages, especially compared with their previous efforts.

"The Silent Genesis" and "Eupnea" are two must listen tracks and PRR instant classics, with their uneven structure that will require multiple listens. "New Obsessions" is a strong opener that mix well Floydian atmosphere, industrial elements and a weird little guitar solo at the end. "Maelstorm" and "Beyond our Bodies" explores the beautiful side of the band, using really beautiful vocal harmonies.

Definitely their most solid, proggy and mature record. A must listen for modern prog fans that also enjoys bands like PINK FLOYD, PORCUPINE TREE, IQ, RIVERSIDE, НAKEN, etc.

Enjoy!
