Far Corner from Wisconsin create some original progressive rock & jazz fusion mixed a overall feeling of playfulness & pure fun. One of the main things that makes them stand out is the fantastic electric & acoustic cello work of Angela Schmidt. If you’re looking for comparsions - think of those Belgian “chamer prog” bands like Univers Zero & Présent mixed with a more jazz feeling. ((((1)))) Phenomnal keyboard & cello work, jumps around but not too frenzied. ((((2)))) Jazzy, bass-heavy, nice guitar/piano interplay. ((((3)))) Minimal piano, random bits of percussion & bass. Mostly sparse. (((((4))))) A spacey version of early ELP? Yep. ‘Cept more balanced playing from each player. (((((5))))) Back to more minimalist, spare stuff. See #3 ((((6)))) WTF? Is this Apocalyptica? Intense, heavy though not metal -the main riff could make a great crunch sound. (((7))) Solid bass & cello work but overall kinda dull. (((8))) Mid-paced, lots of interplay in each pattern (((((9))))) Up tempo, KILLER piano, cello & bass work & very jazzy stuff. ((((10)))) Bouncy & sometimes weird tempos. A real mixed up epic. | ||
