Herd of Instinct - Conjure
SKU
Firepool 004
Excellent second release by this hard-edged, Texas-based progressive rock band, who feature a lot of King Crimson/Gordian Knot-styled multi-guitar/multi-layer stuff going on. The lineup now is Jason Spradlin-drums, Mike Davison-guitar, Mark Cook-Warr guitar & bass, and Gayle Ellett (of Djam Karet!) as a full time member on analog keyboards (Moog, Mellotron, Rhodes, Hammond organ, etc)! Their first one was great and this one is too!
"Pushing the limits of their creativity, instrumental group Herd Of Instinct draws from a vast array of influences-multi-cultural music, literary clues, horror and cinematic film scores, obscure elements of rock, avant-garde, electronic, prog, and psychedelic music-to create a style that is uniquely their own. Conjure builds on the success of their first album. With guest musicians including Colin Edwin (Porcupine Tree), Joel Adair (Legacy Brass Quintet) and looping samples by Steve Tibbetts, combined with their impeccable production, deep compositions, and impressive performances, Conjure is a real treat for fans of King Crimson, Pink Floyd and Mick Karn. Conjure is a finely-crafted, landmark release."
