Zoltan - First Stage Zoltan CD
SKU
26-Cineploit 03
This is the first release by a new UK trio featuring Andrew Prestridge and Andy and Matt Thompson. The group uses all analog keyboard (synths, mellotrons, etc), bass, guitar and drums. The band are obviously influenced by darker progressive rock soundtracks from the 70s, most notably Goblin and have a similar feel/are also influenced by other more modern bands in that vein/influenced by that vein, such as Zombi, Morte Macabre and Guapo....
...Some of you will immediately recognize Matt Thompson as one co-founders of Guapo and a member of the group during which time they made "Five Suns" and "Black Oni" and *I* remember the band telling me how they were lucky to get a mellotron to use on these recordings from Matt's brother, who was a keyboardist with a huge stack of great, old-style gear. Well, here is Matt in a new band (admittedly in more 'homage' vein than 'exploratory' vein) with his brother and his brothers huge stack of gear! Really great and fun.
