Brazilian Raiz de Pedra, as recommended




 Discography located here.

Thanks from the bottom of my heart and ears for the recommendation, never heard this band before. Which is quite shocking in fact. And they are indeed quite impressive with their progressive styled fusion in the classic electric manner, complete with instrumental energy, dissonances, abrupt time and chord changes, etc., you get the idea.

From the first release (1985), anachronistic in the extreme when you just think of the abominable Duran Duran, the title track:



From the next one Ao vivo's (1988), the out of the ballpark AntiMateria which for me exceeds in compositional style and energy any single track done by King Crimson:



And from the Pictures album (1989) which inevitably is a bit less original and punchy, smoother, Xaraxaxa, note the dissonances right off the bat:



And in 1996 they came out with another cd which surprisingly was still quite progressive. How exemplary!

  3. Hello Julian thank you for these rarities with nice original prog/fusion music. Pity that the sound is 192 kbps !
