Album Notes & Community Reviews

Emerging from the Belgian progressive underground, 'Pictures From the Past' is a dizzying, entirely instrumental exploration of complex jazz-rock fusion. The ensemble utilizes a rich palette of brass, woodwinds, and driving electric guitars to craft highly intricate, shifting compositions. It is widely celebrated as an incredibly tight, virtuosic masterpiece of European progressive music.
