It's been 3 years since the last Infra CD and I thought that they
had gone into oblivion, but now they're back with their third
release. They have changed label with every album, from
Mellotronen, through Garageland to The Wild Places. The Wild
Places whom also got Cauldron on their label. Infra is not as
psychedelic as Cauldron and that's why I like Infra better than
Cauldron. The band is from Umeå, Sweden, a town that is known for
its musical life. I have followed Infra since the release of their
debut 4-track CD EP "Infrangible Time" in 1995 and I must say that
it has been a pleasant journey.
Their music is progressive psychedelic rock, with the emphasis on
psychedelic. I can't really compare them to any other band, but
maybe you could imagine a mix between Cauldron, The Doors,
Höyry-Kone, King Crimson, Landberk, Shades Of Orange and The
Spacious Mind. This album is almost as good as the previous. The
highlights are "Eremita's Leap", "Quasi Dim" and "Aggressively
Normal".
If you like psychedelic music, I think that Infra is one of the
better bands in the genre.
