Excellent review by Roger Trenwith, Corima is one of my biggest discoveries of 2012. It is an album that should appeal to both old Zeuhl schoolers, RIO and open-minded jazz rock fans alike. The compositions are very enjoyable, though it’s the quality musicianship and interplay that makes this a winning album.
Some terrific moments on the album, especially tunes like “Zhuntra”, “Quetzalcoatl”, and "Kualtililocayotl". Looking forward to their next work.
Excellent band. Hope to see them live sometime in the future.
Good review as well.

I blame Wynton, what was the question?
There are only 10 types of people in the World, those who understand binary and those that don't.
I'm enjoying it quite a bit, even if they do take quite a page out of the Magma playbook..
For my tastes, this is the best album of 2012, besting even the new Anglagard which I didn't initially think was possible.

Gags has been playing some of this on his shows. They definitely sound like a fun band!
