Album Notes & Community Reviews
Operating delightfully on the fringes of European progressive rock, Belgium's Cos delivered an incredibly unique, highly rhythmic sophomore album. 'Viva Boma' flawlessly merges the jazzy, whimsical qualities of the Canterbury Scene with remarkably mellow, deeply soothing tribal funk grooves, creating a wonderfully playful, distinctively progressive atmosphere.
