Enigmatic Sound Machines - Imperfect Silence (CD)
From our friends at ProgRock.com

Jeremie Arrobas and Thomas Szirmay started working on their third album having decided to venture even further down the prog path, moving away from previous multi-level stylistics into a more homogenous instrumental sound.

They decided on eight full-sized tracks, for an hour’s worth of music, that has evolved into where they wanted to go from the very beginning. They reached out to Rob Harrison, a guitar and sax maestro, who has enthusiastically added saxophone and flute throughout the album. They decided to feature the return of legendary prog/fusion bassist Hansford Rowe (Gong, Gongzilla, HR3 and many more) as well as guitarist Alain Roig. Finally, they also invited French guitarist Alain Bellaiche (Heldon, Richard Pinhas).

Infusing a higher level of symphonics in each track was the aim with increased layers of mellotron, lush string orchestrations, overt electric guitars, and percussives of all kinds, in constructing pieces that had purpose, melody and enough transitional qualities to keep every listener stimulated, with a vast arsenal of details that will make repeated listens even more adventurous. The themes that were chosen were very much the sign of our times - a tired world of endless confusion, stress, depression, hardship, fear and ultimately, hope for a better future.
