Kehell's Galileo [FLAC limited time]

 

A one-off from this band, released in 1999-- so long ago already.  Not much in the database here.  But you can see this is the creation of the guitarist from Mr. Sirius, called Shigekazu Kamaki who was also in the 1983 symphonic one-off opus Orpheus.

It's quite consistently good from beginning to the end, the style being the same instrumental symphonic prog we have heard so much of lately.  From the track called Prologue - Behind the Earth you can get a sense of how interesting the music is, featuring varied instrumentation, modulations, odd rhythms, all the usual accoutrements of classic prog:

Same remarks can surely apply to a track called Paranoid:

At times the music feels derivative and monotonous, failings of so much of the latter-day prog I hate to say.  Still I would argue it's above average for this genre from this decade.
