Prog rockers (of any age) could you check this out?

Question

I recently put all the tracks from my debut album on myspace music and I'd love to know what you think. Could you give it a listen please? The band name is BandNoBand and the album is called 'Bluff'. The music is instrumental prog rock (yeah, I know, some of you are asking "what's that?!!") Thanks... from Andy

Answer 1

Nice stuff. I was always a big fan of the "One Man Band" concept, especially when pertaining to Progressive Rock...Vangelis, Brian Eno, Jean Michael Jarre, Alain Markusfeld, Patrick Vian, etc etc. 'The Key' reminded me a bit of Mike Oldfield, while some of the other songs had a late 70's New Wave/prog 'Japan' ala "Quiet Life" vibe about them.

I think you might really enjoy an obscure late 70's early 80's UK band called 'Random Hold'...at times your sound is similar to what they were trying to achieve....though their level of musicianship was on a slightly higher level (no offense intended). Their best material would be the debut LP titled 'The View From Here', and 'Avalanche'... a two LP compilation. Here's my review of the debut over at the 'Rate Your Music' website. My user ID there is Dr. Progenstein PhP...

I took the luxury of including a link to your profile over at Myspace, so others are able to find you easily...

Answer 2

I gave it a listen. A guitar with distortion would make it sound a lot better I think. I also think theres just too much keyboard for the average person to like it. im not trying to be mean at all but more prog-rockin songs would be nice. Getting a full band together would help. I guess thats just my opinion, but i am an average prog fan and im just trying to help.



Good luck!
