Japan has always been characterized by the character of its people, their perseverance and improving attitude. Many times, the Westerners have complained about how Japanese people are able to take a Western idea, polish it, improve it and, also, sell it cheaper. The case of progressive rock isn’t an exception. Many Nippon bands (Bi Kyo Ran, Ars Nova or Bellaphon, for example) maintain the progressive purity of Western bands like ELP, Camel or King Crimson. In this case, Gestalt (great name, by the way, inspired by the old European psychological school) have taken their entire musical source from the symphonic inspiration of the old continent in order to offer a rough and violent CD, full of risk and originality.
"This album from German band Gomorrha was originally released in 1971. Trauma will weave you through the depths of its progressively complex music, with extended tracks and English vocals to boot. Furthermore, the lengthy title track extravaganza has long been considered as an exceptional masterpiece of space rock." Worth it for the blissful 13-minute title track, the rest is less exciting hard rock typical for the era.

Grime was a French art rock band formed in the mid-seventies. Didier Duval chose Grime as their name because in Greek theater it signifies an actor made up as an old man. This image intrigued him and he tried to incorporate it in their live performances.
Intended for sale at their concerts, their first and only album was initially a privately released limited edition LP of 1000 copies.
Conceived as a concept album, Grime tells the story of a man on a subway who discovers that he can no longer get off. After falling asleep he awakes and looks outside to find the train stranded on a beach. This confusion between dream and reality is the departure for a musical odyssey to worlds of the fantastic. In the end the man wakes to find that he is still on the train in the same dull world.
Grime's music is an example of French progressive rock with a subtle blending of poetry, music, and theater. Their music is a mixture of complex melodies, vocals, and instrumentation similar to other popular contemporary progressive bands: Camel, Genesis, H. P. Lovecraft, King Crimson, Le Orme, and Supertramp. Only the brutal opening song "Cauchemar" (Nightmare) stands apart from the rest of the music. This punk influenced song opens with French shouting representing the trapped man's awareness of his dilemma.
This CD reissue contains six live bonus songs recorded at the "Panespo Club" in Neufchatel, Switzerland on 12 December 1981. The live music recorded 2 years later documents their growth as musicians and as a band.
Grime's music is great. They give good sax but no violins!
