CODA - What A Symphony (1996)

2008-11-28 14:45:01 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
...Coda's second album, What A Symphony , I realised that there is a third way. Coda is, obvious for everyone who listens to the album, dealing with direct political themes, but on the other hand, after a while, the album takes you on a journey, and takes you, so to say, from a ground perspective to a much higher perspective. Yes, the music...

NATIONAL HEALTH - D.S. al Coda (1982) [rated 3/5 by fuxi]

2007-12-28 18:15:57 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
 
...CODA is the result, and it's a highly pleasant album to listen to, but less idiosyncratic than the Health's earlier studio albums (NATIONAL HEALTH and OF QUEUES AND CURES). In fact, the sound of D.S. AL CODA has more in common with the 'symphonic fusion' of bands like Bruford than with classic Canterbury style(s), which should come as no...

...CODA and other out of mainstream progre at their right honored place ! Yeah, if you lived the eighties loving progre, you know what I mean. Commercial and popish music was at its peak, progre music was left apart to die. It didnt exist internet and cd format. We can even find creative progre music in early 80s : in east europe ; in France ;...

...Coda's first album Sound Of Passion, though Central Station : that's a filler. Don't bother about it Reverberating Sounds : this has a structure like Van Dyke Parks' album Song Cycle: there are a lot of musical atmospheres which come and go like the waves of the sea. This is the most interesting track of the album, because here you see the...

CODA - Sounds of Passion (1986) [rated 3/5 by erik neuteboom]

2008-01-28 13:26:49 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
 
...Coda story, I knew him from the Sym-Info magazine and he also traded in rare live records. And in the Nineties I interviewed keyboardplayer Erik De Vroomen because of a vintage keyboard special, what an unique personality! Thanks to Wim Van Putten his LP And CD Show (broadcasted on the national Dutch radio, its was very popular among Dutch...

...Coda has a reputation for being a classical piece of work, and the band sadly underrated Coming across this CD now in 2008 makes that a bit hard to understand though. The guy handling keyboards obviously knows his classical music, arrangements and use of instruments has a strong symphonic tinge to them; and the bass player here knows his...

...coda of Bonsai, but with seven strings. And thats the best definition of Coda, joining the same ideas of the previous album, all that complexity, with heavy riffs and asymmetric rhythms, with some voices above the music, but with the seventh string present from beginning to end. The problem is that the result is not that good like Bonsai. Its...

2008-08-01 00:31:24 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
...Coda release. This mini-CD lasts less than 24 minutes and is wrapped in a beautiful digi-pack whose credits include a massive transcription of all four pieces scores. Coda is a powerful exhibition of the pushy, explosive metallic force that Octopus incarnates with such musical cleverness. The shrapnel pulsations that set the pace of Slussen...

...Coda, but as the liner notes say: it was originally intended to be an Erik de Vroomen solo project, and you can hear that: the keyboards of Erik de Vroomen are central to the music. Erik de Vroomen is also the only composer, and was producing the band as well. In short: this is Erik de Vroomen's vision. The rest of the band can be heard as...
