'Out of myself' by Riverside
They spun some of this between acts at Nearfest 04 and my ears pricked up "promising" I thought.
Saw this on some best of 04 lists, and heard descriptions that mention PTree, Opeth, Pink Floyd and Anathema.
So in I plunged and after 2 whole listens, I'm moved enough to post. It's Son of PTree, closest to the groove 'Sky moves sideways' laid down, where the guitar blazes the trail and spacey keys filling in the voids and atmospheres. Vocals, in english for this Polish band are accent free, good, although not quite up to Wilson's best stuff. The recording quality is good, not excellent, the disc is 53 minutes long and clunker free. damned consistent actually. So if you like that chill out, veg-o-matic, sky moves sideways stuff (I'm jitterbugging to architecture here), this should be on your short list.
Looking forward to their set at NearFest 05, if I make it.
Antibody have insight or raves for Anathema ?
