Kopecky - Blood (2006)Unicorn Digital

The Kopecky brothers have been playing together since the year 1996, but their debut album was recorded in 1999. "Blood" is their fourth studio album, however they also released a live CD - "Orion" (2001). Kopecky trio is made up of Joe (guitars; Par Lindh Project), William (Parallel Mind, Par Lindh Project, Yeti Rain) and Paul (drums, percussion).

"Blood" turns out to be a slow machinery producing an instrumental progressive music with classic hard rock sound. Its syncretic genre's cornerstone are inventiveness, vivid imagination, composing abilities and anti-radio attitude. The latter one is particularly fluky, but it shows their artistic courage. I am pretty sure that Americans' unorthodox music should gratify most demanding and practised listeners. They fuse progressive tones with avantgarde vibe in specific way, so you can find it really dizzying, haha. Beyond any question, the trio's instrumental proficiency is watertight.

This album is meant for people who aren't confused with innovative and unique ideas in music - in contrast to those narrow-minded human beings who put so intellectial stuffs aside. The Kopecky's managed to record a blend of Capharnaüm, Gordian Know and King Crimson. If you are fans of nonconforming music, you will be overjoyed at "Blood".
