Sonora Sunrise is
a new Russian band. This CD is a sort of a concept album with the lyrics
telling a deep desert story. Comes in a lovely 8 panel digipack CD made in only
300 copies. The female singer has an
amazing voice but the album is mostly instrumental. Ancient Stones (Sundown) is
a short 2min intro piece leading into 11min, Welcome to the Sandland. The track
starts slowly with some nice melodic guitar lines and then the track builds up
nicely, almost like and ØSC jam and the keyboards come in a bit more. Unexpected
Trip has some really cool synthesizers and a bit more experimental vibe from
the guitars as the drums and bass just keep the pace steady and uptempo.
Beautful vibe and cool spacey wah guitar to compliment the gliding synths.
Poison starts off with a long synths solo and some wild guitar soloing as well.
Quite a psychedelic track and not as dangerous as the title. Ancient Stones
(Uprise of Jupiter) brings back the female voice once again. Canyon starts with
a simple guitar and some echoed sounds and then the voice, her voice, slowly
flows into the track. Lovely track and cool guitar.
Millions of Snakes has this nice penetratin
guitar line while the other plays a more heavy riff. A bit like a slowed down
Yuri Gargarin. Later it slows down with an acoustic guitar and is very spacey.
Nice bass lines. Roadside Picnic is something totally different but another
very nice song with great melodies and feelings. Nice lead guitar lines. Ancient
Stones Planetary Standoff) ends this great album with a 2min outro. Excellent
stuff…
