10 words or less: Australia’s answer to Twelfth Night

Elaboration: The thing about Twelfth Night, IQ, It
Bites, Marillion, Pendragon and all the other first
generation NeoProg bands that made them “Neo” was
their attempt to fuse the raw energy and 4/4 Rock &
Roll attitude of the Punk/New Wave generation with the
aerie faerie pretensiveness of classic ProgRock. For
some, this was a breath of fresh air in progressive
music. For others it was just plain schlock.

Latecomers to the NeoProg scene, Brainstorm started
recording in 1988. This disc compiles various
recordings through a 6 year period during which they
apparently could not get a record deal. Even this disc
is self-released. There is some very nice Synthesizer
work on this album and the compositions are quite good
as NeoProg goes. The standout track is the 21-minute
Armageddon suite. If you are a fan of any of the
aforementioned bands then I have no doubt Brainstorm
Two will be your cuppa. ~ L Perez
