Залит CheerAccident/(2011)_No_Ifs_Ands_OrDogs

Открыл для себя новую группу. Американцы. Авангардисты. Смесь КС, Джентл Джайнт, а также прочего - РИО, нойза и калифорнийского прога. Выпустили, как выясняется, хренову тучу альбомов, но вот как-то прошли мимо меня...
ОЧЕНЬ интересно, хотя временами и на голову давит...
ВЕСЬМА РЕКОМЕНДУЮ!
Безуспешно ищу их новый, последний альбом Putting Off Death, 2017 года. Кто найдёт, особенно во флаке - буду весьма признателен, со всеми вытекающими :)

(c) Cheer-Accident biography, PA

Originally formed in 1981 by Chicago-based pianist and drummer Thymme Jones, Cheer-Accident has maintained an impressively eclectic approach to music-making throughout their lengthy career, releasing a slew of albums that range in style from noise rock to avant-prog to pop. Unsurprisingly for a band that has been active for well over twenty years, the line-up has shifted on more than one occasion (including the tragic and untimely loss of their then-guitarist Phil Bonnet in 1999), but throughout their career Cheer-Accident have continued to produce challenging and unique music; constantly refusing to pin themselves down to a single genre.

2009 saw the release of Fear Draws Misfortune on Cuneiform Records. A punchy, dark and consistently challenging slice of avant-prog, this album alone more than justifies their inclusion in these archives. Other albums of particular interest to avant-prog fans include 1988's Sever Roots Tree Dies and the more recent Introducing Lemon.

Comparisons to Thinking Plague and other American RIO-tinged avant-prog bands are justified but they do little to capture the utterly unique spirit and sound of this band. Нighly recommended for fans of complex (but uncluttered), highly-composed and unpredictable avant-prog.
