Fresh yet '70s-influenced prog rock: THEO - The Game of Ouroboros
« on: January 27, 2015, 03:03:20 PM »
Hi everyone,

I'm very happy to announce that my friend Jim Alfredson's prog band THEO has released its debut album The Game of Ouroboros on my label Generation Prog Records today (it's on my label for Europe and Jim's very own Big O Records for the USA). Jim has made a name for himself in modern jazz circles as the creative head and organist of the modern jazz trio Organissimo, but he's long been a fan of the classic prog of the '70s, with Tony Banks being a particularly strong influence. THEO takes those influences and applies a modern approach and sound - I think you'll dig it!



But enough talk, let the music speak for itself - we're streaming the full album here:

Enjoy! :)


All the best

Michael

Link is bad, but I figured it out.  Good stuff.

The very soul of what was once real music is now lost in a digital quagmire of emotionless sonic madness.

I've been listening to this all the way through so far.  I'm up to Idle Worship and I have to say I am really impressed by everything.
