Post Description

Studio Album, released in 2010, Uzbekistan.


Laatste album van deze progrock/jazz fusion band uit Oezbekistan.

Moet zeggen dat de jazz invloeden op dit album redelijk beperkt zijn en neigt de de muziek eerder naar symphonic prog.


A long and elaborate conceptual piece is what we"re served by Uzbekistan"s Fromuz on this 2010 effort. And disregarding the opening and ending pieces, which first and foremost are conceptual theatrical pieces that I personally think falls somewhat flat, it is a fine effort for those who enjoy mostly instrumental progressive rock of epic length and with many stylistic variations.

Seventh Story comes across as the most accomplished production by this band so far, but the conceptual theatrical pieces used to tie it all together is a bit of a let-down in my opinion. Without them, the first and last track in particular, this disc would have been pretty close to being regarded as a masterpiece.
