Let's give this great, new record a separate thread to discuss about. As sure as hell, I do not have a definite opinion about it yet, but after my first 2-3 listens I am tremendously impressed by what I am hearing there. Bubblemath have embarked on longer compositions in their newest effort, and it suits them pretty well - the structure of the songs is clearer in my opinion than the labyrinthine Edit Peptide somewhat shorter songs. The combination of fantastic, "pop" melodies pouring out of everywhere, with dense chops and insane musical dexterity makes Turf Ascension an incredibly satisfying and unique experience for the progressive listener. I find it impossible to trace their music back to any obvious source, it is completely their own musical agenda and creative pathways that they explore with their music.
An absolutely brilliant band, dare I say that it is the most interesting progressive band of recent times? They do make most of what passes by as progressive rock in our days sound like an insignificant pulp of tediousness.
Thoughts, comments and more applause please from you!
